What owners say
"The 2003 Mercedes-Benz SLK has received positive feedback from owners who appreciate its powerful performance and stylish design. Many drivers are particularly fond of its acceleration, smooth handling, and luxury interior features like the leather seats. However, some drivers have expressed concerns about fuel consumption and the high price of parts."
Performance is incredible for the price (used), build quality is beyond compare in my experience. 70,000 miles with not one problem. The most incredible thing is that with 349hp I get about 25mpg on the highway. I've had over 50 cars and this is by far the best of the bunch. I absolutely love it.
August 22, 2009Great power,pulls real hard through all the gears. The handling is really impressive,it's spot on for cornering and breaking. A lot of people always complement the yellow with the white wheels I always get thumbs up ever I go
May 6, 2015Just bought a 2003 with 38k, awesome car, acceleration - whoa!, the power hard-top is so nice, very little road noise, handling is smooth, my wife and I both think this car is a blast to drive. I'd recommend it to anyone, you can't beat them for the price.

April 27, 2010Great little road or commute car. The power generated by the supercharged 4 cly is awesome. The car handles like a dream at high speeds. The powered top never misses a beat and fits great when up and locked; very little wind noise. The car is not well mannered in snow and ice; although the traction control does help.
December 3, 2011Love the car. Hate the price of parts. But it's better than the cost of maintaining a Porsche! And, it has a trunk that holds real luggage. Some folks like their Porsches. I agree that they are great cars on the track. I had fun with mine, too. But for day to day driving, the SLK32 is far better. This is both a great sports car and a true GT car. P.S. I was just kidding about the back seat. Don't start looking for one in this car.
