Paddle Shifter Question
I currently own a 06 C55 and I'm looking to add a SLK55. I have noticed after looking at a few 2006 SLK55 that they have the same paddle shifters as my C55 and I was under the impression that the SLK55 had the lasrger paddles. Is this normal?

Done deal! We bought a 2006 White SLK55 with all the goodies. Your are correct, it is indeed a very fun car to drive, especially on sunny cool days with the top down. And the exhaust note at WOT with the top down is music to the ears. My wife will be the main driver on it but I'll be sure I get to enjoy every now and then. Thanks for the help.

Here are the pics after some serious detailing with clearkote's vanilla hand glaze and carnuba wax:
Never though a convertible would be this much fun. Engine notes is harmony to the ears with tthe top down. I guess I now have another forums to troll...

I didnt know it looked that big in white, mine looks tiny in black I guess it hides the curves and the aggressive body styling.
Thank you for taking your time to upload the pictures, I really like the picture from above the slk looks sweet with the wax and the propper detail
Enjoy it in good health and may I say thats a terrific pair, a C55 for a daily driver and a SLK for the weekend or free time with the top down.
