Two keys
I had an '05 SLK350 and currently have an '06 SLK55 - I have not noticed any difference in the two keys. 
Is the AMG supposed to have a special key also?

The "panic" button only comes with the Factory Alarm option. In the US this alarm is standard; in Canada and possibly the rest of the world, this is not the case. Guess car theft must be a bigger problem in US
In Canada, every sedan key I've seen has it, but for C-coupes, I only know of one person who has it... (and I've probably seen 15+ sets of keys)

That's keyless go. On the E55 keyless go is a 1080$ option according to MBUSA.com

For you US people, how much do you save on your premiums by having an alarm?

I have the alarm for my SLK, but I don't have a panic button. Maybe it's not available in Europe? I also have the alarm option if the car is tilted while stopped and level...
