Just picked up my new SLK55 with PP to join my collection. Fun little car, I missed my R171 SLK55. Getting the headliner and pillars done with alcantara with red contrast stitching in the coming weeks.

Congrats, it really is a fun little car. Its not as aggressive as other AMG's but a blast on corners (a tune does help) Enjoy.

I thought about doing a renntech tune on it. That's what's on my CLS and I've been happy with it. I'd eventually want to do headers though, but renntech only does the shorty headers and I'd want longtubes so I wouldn't be able to get a matching tune for them. I'm waiting to see who comes out with a tune and headers I want. So far no headers out yet.

That's why I got it. It's not as brute force, but it's a featherweight as far as AMG goes. It loves to be tossed around corners unlike the other much heavier cars in the lineup. Most people look down on them compared to the SL, but after having owned a SL55 and 65 they're not near as fun to drive as the SLK due to their weight and softer suspensions.

I was really happy with the Renntech tune for our car. Throttle response picked up and I dropped some significant times in my 1/4 and 0-60. My previous sprint to 60 was achieved in 4.4 sec and now I have logged a quick 4.19

I'm very interested in what headers will be produced. Long tubes would be a great compliment to the car.

What PP includes, any HP figures?

That's probably the handling package? I didn't see any HP upgrades on AMG site like PP for the C63.
