I much prefer the old (current) SLK which had a ''racy'' front end that ''dipped'' a lot. Looked like a mini-SLR.
This looks like a generic Chrysler.
I'll pass.

Overall it looks nice, but I can't help but think it looks a little too cadillac like to me in the front. I think the SLK is more of a woman's car, and thus they overdid the front end a little. I guess this looks more masculine, and a bit more like the SL.

It just won't be the 4xx hp that the new one will be making.

I like it, but I like the previous 2 iterations as well. I loved the one I had, it was a great long distance cruiser, highway car, and even daily driver with the metal roof. I think the darker colors will look the best though.
The fender vents though are hideous. Looks like something from a Buick or Caddy and i don't know why these are being put on so many cars.
