Subtle, but significant mods. Now get a wood trim kit otherwise only available in the US on the SLK350 and you will really have something unique.THe wood trim looks great with the berry red interior.

Are you aware that your car isn't fitted with AMG floormats?

Love the valve caps!

I have the same problem! I have asked people to post pictures of their AMG floor mats but so far no one has responded!?! My sales person tells me there aren’t any yet!?! But somehow I don't believe him!

Can you post a picture of the damn thing?

05 SLK55AMG
My car was delivered on Friday February 11. It came with as set of CLS 55 AMG floor mats. The dealer went crazy, called Jacksonville and my SLK 55 AMG mats were there by Tuesday. They just say AMG on the side of the mat. Same as my old 02 C32. So the mats are available at the Jacksonville port facility.

Your salesman is "confused" from masmole's web site (he posted on BenzWorld): http://homepage.mac.com/lvelano/PhotoAlbum19.html

I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
We did not get AMG mats either. Where did you get your car from? Ours was Marcus at House of Imports. I do know that when I go to get the E55T I intend to make sure they have the proper mats for BOTH cars when we pick it up!

I picked my 55 up at Rusnak in Arcadia. I told my salesman to check this thread and look at the pic with the 55 w/amg floormats. He stated he will order the mats and ship them to me.

AMG Mats...

From the feedback on this thread - it illustrates one of two things - either AMG mats are an option which people don't realise when they are buying the car as they just assume AMG means they will get everything AMG which means it is Mercedes fault for not making it plain exactly what you get with the car ORRRRR that Mercedes are trying to get away with giving cheaper mats with their cars to cut costs and to hope the buys won't make a fuss - again Mercedes fault.....anyone see where i am going here?

I am the last person to defend MB! I f you have red my previous comments you know how upset I am regarding MB reliability and service! But in this case I have to say you are wrong! The AMG mats are the same quality and shape as the regular ones! It just says AMG on the side; very very very plain and boring! And they are not an option like the door sills neon or plexi-glass wind deflectors.

I got my SLK55 in November and just this past Tuesday I received my AMG mats! And I made a huge mistake! Don't repeat my mistake! Don't get the plain black floor mats. Get the one with colored sides! In my case (I have black and berry color interior), I should have gotten the floor mats that comes with the solid berry (red) interior. These mats have a red stitching on all sides! Very cool! Just difficult to keep clean!

I got my 55 January 10. Ordered the mats about a week later. Was told it would be a few days. Later told it would be five weeks! Just picked them up today after almost eight weeks. At least they were AMG mats. Just got the black ones and happy to get them.

Any part numbers for these?
The red interior isn't available in the AMG so would'nt they be SLK mats??

I saw a picture in this forum from somebody in the States with AMG mats with red stitching on all sides. Good luck searching!

Talking Valve cap ?

Ordering my SLK this month. Value caps are nice, but be careful. I put it on my 3 series Bimmer and got stolen quick.
