What Owners are Saying About the 2004 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class

"Best car I've ever owned!"

"Always wanted a Mercedes and now that I have one I wish I had bought it years ago. Everything about it spells quality. It's not the sportiest car I've owned but it does pamper you. Being tall has kept me out of many sports cars. This one fits! It's very good about sipping gas on the highway. I've reached 30 mpg on several occasions."

"Wow - What a Great Car"

"After multiple Miatas, I decided to up the ante with more of a Grand Touring machine. I'm not disappointed. The engine has a fantastic tone with the top and the pedal down. The top deploys like Rube Goldberg is smiling. But the AirScarf feature is probably the best for this bald man. My wife calls the car, "a bit douchey". She's not wrong. But I don't care. I think it looks great. And my mechanic hasn't had any bad news...yet. Just a transmission service so far. No repair expenses. Oh, and it gets 28mpg on the freeway...not bad at all for a very heavy car with plenty of pep."

"Great for 2 people"

"I bought mine used in 2012 and still love her today. I wish someone would have told me an oil change costs $180 on sale at Benz. I bought mine with an extended warranty & just extended it again. I absolutely love this car & so does my grandson.."
