Jimp is infamous around these parts
Those lease rates are for 06/07 cars that are mostly used. Not exactly the same, but thank you.

I remember when first looking at them.......... hearing the car start (from the rear) has you 50% sold on the car already.

Exactly, SLK55 is a real sports car and much more sporty than SL55. My supercharged SLK55 makes cars like SL55 and E55/E63 look like they're standing still. I have no problem keeping up with the new 997 Turbo and and the new Z06 corvette. Even when my SLK55 was stock, it was faster than my friend's 996TT and kept up with SL55 until 120mph!


Here's a video of a kleemann SLK55 vs Z06 (not my car, but same mods as mine)

Yes really. Didn't you see the kleemann SLK55 vs Z06 video I posted? 550hp and 3,350lbs is nothing to mess with.

I thought exactly the same until I re-read and saw the "supercharged" notation there. (otherwise no-way-on-this-planet).
