Logbook entries draw sonic comparisons to Massey-Ferguson tractors and gripe that highway passing maneuvers cause more engine noise than acceleration. Numerous owners suggested a V-6 engine as the best solution, like the silken unit employed in the M-Class, but Mercedes chose to fit the four-cylinder for weight and packaging reasons. Our staffers were disappointed with the engine's rough aural character and limited output. It is in this higher rpm zone that the SLK becomes lively, with the excitement hitting a 5800-rpm redline wall. As the revolutions climb to 4000 rpm, the supercharger whirs and the engine produces a raspy snarl that increases to a whiskey-voiced banshee scream. The Sunburst Yellow two-door zips to 60 mph in a swift 6.9 seconds, despite initial throttle laziness common on current Mercedes products. But for someone who loves the SLK and loves yellow even more? This is it.Although known only by impersonal initials, the SLK's middle-name is certainly "Fun." Under the sloping hood lurks a 2.3-liter DOHC inline four-cylinder engine invigorated by a Roots-type Eaton M62 supercharger and an air-to-air intercooler, producing 185 horsepower. We are seeing cars sell for that and beyond, so it doesn’t surprise me this one is listed for that. Personally, I think it is awesome you can buy one of these in yellow leather just for the craziness factor alone.Īs for the price, $17,000 doesn’t seem all that bad. Even with a fair 57,000 miles, this one shines above with the great conditioning of what I assume is very fragile leather. The interiors had serious issues with materials and the majority of them have aged pretty terribly – to the point where they aren’t worth much unless it is an extremely nice example. Truth be told, the first-generation SLK was not a beacon of quality for Mercedes-Benz.

That was the case with this 1998 SLK 320 Kompressor up for sale in Italy. However, whenever Designo gets involved, they seem to turn the dial up a few notches. Last week we saw a very rare 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL500 sell for a bunch of money and I’m certain if that car was black, it wouldn’t have sold for that price. I always seem to go hot and cold on the color, and honestly that is because it entirely depends on what car it is.
