Interesting Options
Hey all -- I just put in a pre-order for the first 2006 SLK55 coming to my dealer and I was wondering what options are a MUST.
I was also wondering if I could get my saleswoman to dig and order my car with some 'special' euro-options. I saw a picture of an SLK55 in Capri Blue with Black on Blue leather -- Is that even possible to get here? I know it is with BMW and Audi so I'm sure some of you have tried.
Thanks guys and gals,
Stephen

AMG will do custom work but it will cost you $$$.
I remember seeing a pepto-bismol pink SL 55 AMG once... the ugliest thing I ever saw but it still had a fire breathing 496hp hand built supercharged V8 underneath it.

parktronic are the sensors in the front and the back of the car ,, it helps you to park easily , and reminds you with a sound and li'l light infront and on the back that you are about to reach the object if it was red...
well, i have it but again my SLK55 is european... and isn't made for the US market...

If you can get your salesperson to get custom configurations including European color combinations or other options, let us know, I am sure there would be plenty of people wanting to order... I've not seen anyone who could do this yet.
