The 2008 SLK Roadster.
You see, yourz truly has been thinkin’ about a Merc for some time now, and, ooh boy... have they got a pride of ‘em worth prowlin’ the urban jungle with. Now showcasing a distinct arrow shape at the front end, the SLK-Class has one serious Formula One face. Talk about attitude! And ‘neath the hood, I can choose from among three engines. First up is a supah-freaky four-cylinder that can bust out 184 horsepower and torque of 184 pound-feet. Next is the revamped version of its 3.5-liter V-6 engine. This baby has 305 horsepower, 265 pound-feet of torque, all while producing less carbon dioxide. But what I’m eyein’ most of all is dat AMG version of the new SLK… its eight valves can produce 360 horses that iz sure to whoop sum ignorant ass!
I myself wants me that new SLK Roadster – my soundz surround and remain loud even in the open air; and, at a push of a button, it’s “vario-roof” comes up to weatherproof me and m’lady, coupe-style! Everythin’ is prettified: from the three-spoke steering wheel to the trapezoidal exhaust tailpipes. Even the rear is in a new and impressive “diffuser-style” that lets everyone behind you know who’s lord of the road.
Beyond merely lookin’ and drivin’ mighty fine, there’s them high-tech that is as fast-paced as the Merc itself. More than the hands-free Bluetooth-enabled audio system, it is the optional LINGUATRONIC voice-operated control system that impresses this pimp the most. Sure, the other Mercedes Classes had it first, but hell if I care! Load CD number six! Show map! Destination
