2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class Review
By Jack R. Nerad, Executive Editorial Director, KBB.comIf part of your self-description includes driving the best-looking convertible of the season with the richest looking interior, then it'll be easy to see yourself in the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK.
If you play basketball or first base for a living, or if you've done time as a shopaholic (you need to carry a lot of stuff in your car), then why are you even considering a 2-seat convertible whose h
Mercedes-Benz has worked hard to build sports car credibility into the new SLK, which is the third generation of the car. Each edition of the SLK has upped the performance ante as Mercedes-Benz engineers try to put to rest the longstanding notion that the SLK is more a personal-luxury car than a sports car. Certainly the SLK has all the slick moves of a performance machine with outstanding acceleration, confident roadholding and taut, responsive steering. And we were impressed with the SLK's overall handling. Thanks to its well-tuned suspension

"I bought this car in August of 2012, and I still love driving it! It's my second SLK, my first being an SLK32 AMG back in 2003. While I owned four Porsche's in between my SLK's, and I am likely to go back to Porsche when my lease runs out, you really can't beat the SLK for the price. A nicely equipped SLK 350 runs about $63,000 (about half the cost of my previous Porsche's), and I got my SLK discounted to about $58,000. So, for under $60,000, getting a wildly hip looking, 2-seat luxurious Mercedes convertible is a slam-dunk. You won't be disappointed."

"Just bought SLK 350. It is very comfortable for a car this size. Love the “hold” function. In traffic just press the break peddle little harder and the car lets you rest your foot. When the roof is up, you can hardly hear any road noise. Living in Boston the “Air scarf” comes very handy, especially on colder nights. The performance is great; it is perfect balance of luxury and performance. Highly recommend it!"
