Used Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class coupes for sale near Bakersfield, CA

Worth the travel and time. I flew from SLC to Phoenix to pickup my purchase a GLK 2015 Mercedes. Bare in mind a purchase sight unseen takes a lot of confidence going in. Once I arrived it was a quick test drive - just to confirm the mechanics were good and I was familiar with the car. Under an hour, I was done with paperwork and heading home in my new ride. 700 miles most of it through the scarcely populated Nevada and Arizona desert was uneventful...just as I hoped. Yesterday I parked my new car in my own driveway... proud of the purchase, confident it was the right car. Ryan and Mo were ready ahead of time and made everything as easy as possible. The financing they lined up was a good fit. Would I buy another car from them? Yes.

So far so good. Great looking, responsive and exactly what I wanted, interior was almost perfect and the cabin amenities are great for an 06.

John at Drum Hill is the best buying experience I have had in years. He is very professional, his office manager is very responsive to her customers. They shipped my Mini Cooper to Maryland thru the snow. My Wife has since taken it from me. Their prices are very fair and the vehicle was in excellent condition!! We are very happy with Them and will buy another car from them in the future and can count on a wonderful buying experience. From Massachusetts to Maryland with an understanding and honest dealership!!! Fantastic

Surprisingly an excellent value for sports car. Bought mine used and quality is still intact. The reliability has proven to be very good. A fun DIY car that is easy to work on. Parts are priced reasonably well and readily available. The Mercedes roadability is the true fun factor. Classic Mercedes styling, being a unique hardtop convertible, and name, will win many over now in and in the future.

Felt like they were honest and trustworthy! They were helpful! Very professional and personable and caring!

Bought this little Gem off of a friend of mine, It has 100,000 miles on it but you wouldn't know it! Drives and handles like a dream, has plenty of power the supercharger works well very impressive!!!!! Never had a Mercedes before but would not hesitate to buy another one. this little roadster is just too much fun!!! :)

Very happy with my purchase and experience buying a car from Mike. Very honest person.

Just sold mine after owning it for eight plus years. While I loved the looks of the SLK and I did enjoy owning and driving it, I was never that crazy about the spartan interior. For a Mercedes that cost $40K new, I thought it was rather plain Jane. I also wasn't happy with things like the door panels delaminating, the dash finish scaling off and probably most of all, the dang roof...I expected better from a Mercedes Benz. The roof went kaput three times while I owned the car and I got sick of the bother and the cost to deal with it. I would have also hoped it would hold its value better. I sold it rather cheap despite having put thousands into it. It's a cool little hardtop convertible but if you buy one, beware...be prepared to sink some $ into it.

My 2001 SLK 320 is a great car, it's fast,dependable , gets good gas mileage, looks and looks great. I get a lot of compliments daily, for being over 20 years old that's saying a lot.

I love my Benz even tho it does have some common issues just like any other European vehicles. However, it’s a great car overall and I would recommend it!

Always wanted a convertible, but was not impressed with “rag” tops. Love this hard top, and the design is brilliant. Benz dealership is a pleasure to work with.

We live 4 hours from here. We found a car on their site with a comprehensive Carfax report and a decent price. We called and they answered all our questions. We negotiated a rate over the phone. We drove the 4 hours, test drove the vehicle, signed the paperwork as agreed upon and drove away with a clean, well working car. Thank you for a good experience!

I have been a big fan of the Mercedes Benz motorcars for years, and have always admired the SL's. I found a 1998 SLK230 advertised on my local marketplace on Facebook of all places. I have now owned this stunning little car for going on two years. I have put very little work into it since I purchased it. Oil change, coolant flush, injectors cleaned and changed out the shocks for a set of Bilstein b6's instead of the b4's, which gave the car a little stiffer ride. One of the main lifting cylinders for the roof sprung a leak and now the top does not work. Just waiting to replace it. This seems like a typical problem facing the older SLK's. Mine is the sunburst yellow like the one pictured. After 24 years the paint still gleams bright. I have received so many admiring comments on this car. People can't believe it's as old as it is. If you ever run across one, my advice would be grab it before it gets away. this seems like a typical problem facing the older SLK

Had good experience with this dealer. Smooth process and friendly environment. So far our new Honda is doing great. Hopefully we got another car for my second daughter

I love to take the back roads with the top down and the music cranked. Handles and corners better than any vehicle I have ever driven.

They were very responsive to my request and got back to me in a timely manner. Although I didn’t go through with the sale I appreciate their professionalism and service

A real head turner for the 5 years I've owned it. Rare 6 speed manual, which has been loads of fun! Good road manners and handles very predictably. Highly recommended!

It is so sharp. Everyone comments on it and is shocked that its 20 years old. Great ride. Very dependable and comfortable. I am going to buy the new version of it.

Great weekend car or fun to go to work. Great for weekend get away. Nice to ride with the top down and listen to a Great stereo.

The dealership provided a quick response and follow up to insure that all my questions were answered. They were friendly, knowledgeable and I felt that the asking price was fair and reasonable for the car. They also provided a very reasonable transportation quote in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this dealership.

Most people see these early SLKs and think they are expensive to fix and hard to maintain. In reality, they are one of the most serviceable cars made. Almost everything is easily accessible and owner serviceable. Tons on videos and online articles exist to walk you through basic maintenance and common repairs. But you won't need that often as these cars are extremely reliable and will easily last past 200k miles. The paint is extremely durable and you'll find the oldest examples to still be glossy and without many paint chips. The interior is known to have issues with the paint wearing off the hard plastic surfaces, but touch-up paint is available to keep it looking tidy. Most of the first generation cars are well below $10k now with many excellent examples in the $4-5k range. Many are low mileage and in excellent shape, having been owned by those who only drove them on the weekends during fair weather. A lot of car for the money and a better investment than a Miata , Boxster, TT or Z3.

Charlie helped me and he was very straight forward and was able to give me all the information that I needed about the car. very helpful

Car has not too much electronic that goes wild, Technik is mostly robust. Also for people they can work a little on cars, the common things are usual very easy to fix, service items actual do most not require extreme Mercedes knowledge, also to access this service items on the car is relatively easy. I have my second one same style and real like it.

Just bought my dream vehicle from Hamed at Autobahn Gallery. They made the process fun and easy. The personnel are fair and truly class acts. We'll be going back when it's time for our next vehicle! Hamed...thank you!

This is a chocolate box of a car. I give it to German engineering and craftsmanship for packing everything into this model. I wonder if anything with a combustion engine has been made better than this? Right now, I can't think of anything I don't like about it - even keeping it clean is a pleasure. OK, paying premium gas takes getting used to. The big question.... Am I good enough to deserve this? It's a crime ($23.5K for a 2012 model, with Sahara leather and burled walnut, with just 59k on the odo. Took it straight to a Mercedes car specialist to look over. Happy to report it's in tiptop condition. ) PS I don't know about reliability yet. But I had to rate it, so was optimistic. I was careful to study the Carfax service history for my vehicle - and am going into this knowing that TOC is going to be "higher than average".

Got a great deal from this dealership for my daughter ! Not sure what all these people are complaining about. The NO PRESSURE sales technique is awesome as you don't have some peaty salesman bothering you the whole time. 6 HUGE STARS !

I bought my 2007 SLK 280 used in 2022. I had it inspected and knew ahead of time I was going to have to put another $5k into it to make it right and how I wanted. So far I’m very happy with the car and am glad I spent the money. Great combination of being sporty, luxurious and roomy. I initially was considering buying a used Porsche Boxster but I’m 6’4” and it was too cramped and the interior looked and felt cheap to me. My SLK just looks and feels very high quality and it is so much fun to drive. I put in an upgraded radio with touch screen, usb, CarPlay etc. made in China that was made to match the existing accessories (highly recommend). The car is in such good condition people think it’s new. I’m always looking for excuses to drive it and can’t wait to get in it. It has a top speed of 155. I have had it up to 130 and it’s solid as a rock. The Germans make their cars autobahn ready.

Sam is a great guy that works with you to get you in a nice vehicle. I would recommend this car lot to my family and friends!

I really liked the car. Lots of “extras”, had a manual and automatic transmission option which was unexpected and fun. The body had a few dings, but it is 8 years old so some marks are to be expected.

The The dealership I would rate extremely high. they’re courteous, answered any and all my questions and I would recommend them to anyone who are looking for an honest dealership. And their pricing is extremely fair.

The C230 Kompressor (2.4 liter) engine is SUPER dependable…IF the car has been maintained. If you don’t have a service record and are not good at detecting problems on a test drive then do yourself a favor and spend the +/- $300 to get it inspected at a competent Benz garage. Mine has 200,000 miles and have never had ANY big expense…most I ever had to put into it is about $400…which is what it cost to replace factory front brakes, or to service the auto trans with fluid and filter. change. Only mechanical problem I have ever had are worn cam sensors, which is common and costs about…$400 to repair. My experience after driving the car for ten years is that parts are affordable on eBay…used lower mileage engine: <$1000. Main thing is to replace supercharger oil if it starts to whine louder. YouTube has a video on how to do that w/o removing the supercharger. Lastly, while I maintain the car, I also drive the holy xxxx out of it! It’s only going to start leaking oil if you don’t get it changed often enough, or if you drive it like an old lady who is not from Pasadena…

10/10 stars if I could. Moda cars and everyone that helped me was great. Moe helped me get the car of my dreams and arrange to have it shipped all the way from Texas

this car is the best car ever I owned. Powerful and gorgeous. This is the perfect car to drive on PCH by the shore with topdown.

Great experience . Easy , fast. If you know what you are looking for this is your place .

It is a classy and peppy sport coup. I find, despite its size, there is a lot of headroom. The sound system is not good though and if you want to update it to an aftermarket system good luck: requires a complete rewire.
