Mercedes is presenting the facelifted Mercedes SLK 55 AMG. It looks now quite more dynamic with the new front apron and the dark-tinted headlamps. For the first time the car features the new direct steering with variable servo assistance with makes the car even more agile and responsive.

Daimler keeps the reliable and fantastic V8 engine with 265kW/360bhp doing 0-100km/h in 4,9s. The SLK 55 AMG is the only car in its class to feature a V8 engine combined with the AMG Speedshift 7G-Tronic.

Unfortunately Daimer keeps the electronic limiter to 250km/h. But for a small amount you can ask AMG to open up the car to 300km/h.
AMG also offers you a Performance package which consists:

* AMG high-performance braking system with internally ventilated and perforated composite brakes

* 18-inch AMG multi-piece light-alloy wheels in twin spoke design

* AMG performance suspension

* AMG performance steering wheel with smaller diameter, flattened lower section and silver-coloured
aluminium shift-paddles

* AMG carbon-fibre trim in the interior

The new SLK 55 AMG is ready to order at 69.049,75 € (incl. 19% VAT). Market launch will be March 2008.
