2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class consumer reviews

I love this car it is quick on straight aways and handles incredible at high speeds around sharp turn. But performance is only the half of it the body shape is contently turning heads. This is by far my favorite car and i have had Porsches,Audis,and BMWs

Forget the Experts. They are all car enthusiasts - of course they want twitchier handling and more power. But I have had my share of Porsches, Miatas and MR2's. Lots of fun, all of them. But I've grown up now. I drove the BWM Z4, and I found it just too much - not quite ill-mannered, but certainly it was turning it's nose up at me - thought it was too good for the daily grind, the commute down the highway in traffic, the long Interstate at 75 mph on cruise. No, the Z4 longed for twisty Alpine roads taken like James Bond or Mario Andretti. The SLK can do all that too, it just does it with a feeling of elegance. It likes the curves - but it is also at home in traffic or on cruise control. And it turns heads with its radical styling (I have a 2009 model). And there are no alpine roads in Texas.
