What's New for the 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class?
Another roadster in a long line of sporting machines from Mercedes-Benz, the 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class builds on the proportions and philosophies of today's model, refining them in a completely redesigned car that takes its styling cues from modern concept and production vehicles wearing the three-pointed star.
Advantages of the 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class:
- Airscarf neck-warmers
- Retractable hardtop
- Strong V6 engine
- Head and thorax side-impact airbags
Objections to the 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class: - Folding hardtop eats potential cargo space
Editor's Advice:
The original Mercedes-Benz SLK was never taken seriously as a sports car, even in supercharged AMG format. Perhaps this new Benz roadster, with its stout engines, revised hardware, and sleeker look, will provide the goods to go head-to-head with the BMW Z4, Honda S2000 and Porsche Boxster.
