Say what you want about it not being a sports car, the little SLK55 AMG was the last AMG you could get with an N/A V8. And this is quite an engine. 415 horsepower in something this small, even if it’s heavier than it should be, will make for a good time.

I’d probably get one if they put the SLK manual in it.

About 80k. Way too much for what it is. What an amazing car it could be if it competed closer with the Boxter S or an upper trim level non Z06 Corvette.

The coupe production ended before the slk production. Unfortunately the last SLK had probably been built with the SLC incoming.

It's still listed in the US site too. I can't figure out why. They had the last production run when I worked at a Mercedes dealer like 9 months ago.

I didn’t forget. I’d just choose to get one of Mercedes Benz’s V8's in something slightly larger.

A little late to the party on this one, but there’s a guy by where I work who has one. I see him on the highway a lot and it looks like a boatload of fun.
