Any news on SLT ?

I am looking for more information of SLT , a hatch coupe development based on the SLK. We here so dusty , bad weather, traffic jam, air polution , really do not need a mechanical top convertible which does less but more weight. A SLT is just great and hope it has a AMG version such as SLT63 in 2006/7.
Please help.

A 17 year old kid made a Photoshop picture and called it SLT. I'm sure he could make you a AMG version with any engein you desire.

Can you verify for this group whether below photo is indeed
photoshoped by a 17 year old kid? ( and how do you know he is 17 yr old and not 18 or 16 ? )

I picked this up from a latest local car magazine, if it is fake, I will complain
to this magazine editor.

You are a Honable SLK55 AMG owner, you must be right. :p

Thanks

There have been many reports of the SLT "Shooting Brake"...Personally I'd love to see it happen, considering what BMW is going to do with the Z4 it would be a direct competitor more info at this address.... http://www.jalopnik.com/cars/gossip/mercedes/index.php

I'm interested -- would make a good car for Europe. I don't know if I'd be willing to lose the folding hardtop though....

looks arent as important to me as driver involvement and performance, i was gonna get a m coupe (the 315hp version) but couldnt find a brand new 1.

Guess we will see how many other "idiots" there are.

I've started a poll to see how people like the look of this purported Mercedes Benz concept.

I agree. That thing looks like azz & will hopefully never see the light of day.

Nova, you "poser". You had a C6, now an SLK55. Geezuz, some people. :p

look dude, every1 has their own opinion about looks.
i just want mercedes to build a real sports car.
i dont care that u said that its ugly, just dont say u hope that they dont build it. i love mercedes and i agree that the slk55 is a nice car and the sportiest car mb currently makes, it just not as driver oriented as it can be (no lsd, heavy, auto...). i would love it if they made a coupe slk55 though. if i bought my cars (i lease) i would buy a slk55 and weld the roof on and take all the top mechanicals out to save some weight.
maybe i overreacted by callin u an idiot, sorry, every1 has their own opinions.
