SLK/SLC-Class (R172) Mercedes-Benz SLK R172 (spy shots and info)

[7saen]

hussein, you told us a year ago you did like more the W212 E-Class more than the F10 5er. What do you think regarding this new SLK against the Z4?.

that was my initial opinion before both car were officially revieled. and since the 5er hasn't been shown yet it still won't be my final opinion.

As for the SLK, unfortunately I haven't seen it because it wasn't finished yet while I was at AMG.

If this is ven 80% close, it has already lost to the Z4. No contest.

MB is well capable of disgracing the Z4. Too early to tell if these photos are even close to the actual design.

Haha A moment of insecurity there, huh, HOH?

Well they might be able to, but like I said, with the spy-pics seen of this car it doesn't seem like it's going to. Why? The Z4 is curvy and infused with some organic lines with flame surfacing while what we can tell of this car, so far, is that it's made with the same boxy lines of the new MBs like E, C, and GLK. But the box lines on this car seem to throw off the proportions but then again it could just be the camo. So, I'm still hopeful that it will go head to head with Z4 but spy shots suggest otherwise.

Lol...Who me? Never

Honestly, I really could care less how the thing comes out. Z4 looks horrible IMO anyway. Plus I would never buy a Z4 or SLK.

Now if Mercedes-Benz messes up the S-class, then yes, I probably will OD on some sleeping pills.

Here is the interior

Not bad at all....

nice new steering wheel..

 

[batosai]

Wow, you gotta be kidding me!! SLS interior for 1/5 of the price ??

 

[Shining Star]

I'm starting to have my doubts about the interior. It's a 95% copy of the SLS...I do not think MB would've done something like that...

Either I'm wrong or the interior is just a chop of the SLS's.

 

[Hot Fuzz]

I'm very excited about that car since it's going to pave the way for the next generation luxury coupes.

I have no doubt it will be good, but then, it doesnt have many others to contend with in the "luxury coupe" market!

That was my first thought. MB should leave the F__king SLS alone, and stop bastardizing it by introducing that same interior in the SLK.

The Z4 waves hello.

I don't think Mercedes would do such interior transplant like that, but if that is true then they've taken yet another turn down the wrong style path. I know the exterior will mimic the SLS as the previous SLK did the SLR, but the interior should be its own.

Then again since the SLS is mostly a parts bin interior this may very well be true.

The Z4 and the Mercedes SL arent in the same sector imo
