2012 Mercedes Benz SLK350 Roadster Ash Interior and Metallic Storm Red Exterior

http://www.eurocarnews.com - Merecedes Benz USA - The timeless, classic shape of the side profile with the classic roadster proportions embodies aesthetics of the highest caliber and is a visual cue to the sportiness and driving pleasure in store. Fine details show the care that has been taken by the Mercedes-Benz designers. For example, a molding conceals the trunk joint, so that the side line cannot get in the way, as it usually does with similar roof designs. The ventilation grilles in the front fenders with a chromed fin are reminiscent of the famous Mercedes-Benz roadsters of the 1950s. In the new SLK they form the perfect starting point for a feature line, which flows to the muscular rear fender, using light and shadow to add style and timeless aesthetics to the sides. Meanwhile the upper edge of the wide headlamps -- which for the first time boast all-LED technology -- also appears to flow into the feature line.

Despite the most compact dimensions in its class, the 2012 SLK has generous interior dimensions. To achieve this, the designers have developed interior appointments that offer the driver and passenger the highest degree of quality and pure precision. The interior is characterized by stylish sportiness and genuine high-quality materials which have been processed with perfect precision and skilled craftsmanship. Standard brushed aluminum trim covers the center console; wood trim can be ordered as an option in high-gloss dark brown walnut. Four round, metallic air outlets integrated in the dashboard emphasize that this model truly belongs to the Mercedes-Benz sports car family, their shape being a nod to those in the SLS.

@taiyozoku1 Good selection but I would prefer the new SLK.

@RCasto It's not a scratch...just a reflection.

[EWLGtoday]

Does it come in a manual trans???

I have a bad feeling it doesn't...so than this car is as good as a suped up Hyndai Accent.

@juukame this steering wheel's styling cue taken from 2008 renault megane, many car manufacturers are following suit

[juukame]

i think mercedes currently makes the best looking steering wheels out of any manufacturer

Mercedes SLK 350 BlueEffi ciency, 306 ch 55 150 €

Aussi élégant que bien fini, l’habitacle évoque, comme l’extérieur, celui du SLS. Les frileux apprécieront le chauffage de nuque Airscarf (500 €) et les mélomanes l’excellente qualité de la sono Harman Kardon (850 €). (French)

There seems to be a scratch above the front left wheel...

Mercedes has always made ugly cars, but this and the SLS look great!

@mozarkozark at least its not the bland, uninspiring design language BMW has been showcasing in its latest 5 and 7-series. Its good to see MB is actually trying new things.
