    SLK's are fun cars, although there is a HUGE difference between the present and previous generation of SLK's.

    In comparision to the other cars in its class for the 98-04's... I think you'd be better off with some of the other options: Rivals included the BMW Z3, Chevrolet Corvette, and Porsche Boxster.

    If your looking in that range, the boxster has been basically unchanged up until this year, and you can find them for just about the same as an old SLK... Z3's are dated but still cool... and a 97+ corvette still looks modern to me...

        Seriously consider the Boxster... I had a hard time choosing between the SLK and the Boxster (the new SLK)...

                    Kenn, just keep in mind that German cars are extremely high maintenance and expensive to repair (like everyone has said). And you know me with all the cars I work on. On another note, they are still excellent cars, just need to be prepared for upcomming expenses. Whats the final word on the RSX?

                      Yup....When it has problems get ready to bend over. Merc has horrible reliability.

                      If your gonna buy an european car, make sure it has a good warranty

                            How does it still have 3 years warranty? Even if it has the extended MB one, it doesnt transfer over to you beyond 36,000 miles / 3 years.

                            Go drive the older gen and figure out if you like it or not before you buy one.

                              i guess one of my points is that since he is selling it for 14,000 which is way under priced, i could resell the car again and make a profit.

                                        Also, the superchargers like to go bad alot also.

                                        If it has an aftermarket warranty you can pretty much just throw those papers away right now...

                                        And drive it. My grandpa had one when they just came out...there kinda boring and honda slow

                                          it still has a supercharger on it. I can always just change to a smaller pulley for some extra power or will that have to many damaging effects?
