Do any of those cars offer a proper manual tranny, though? |

Wing spreads his, uh, wings and gets published outside the blogs! What a way to do it, too; sweet cars.
And yeah, too bad about the no manual tranny thing. I imagine it would take a pretty heavy clutch to handle all that power, though. |

From the story: "The SLK55 actually turned out to be my favourite of the bunch even though it was not the fastest." I may be guessing though  |

How is it possible that after electricity has traveled through hundreds of miles of power line then hundreds of feet (or yards) of romex in our home, that changing the last three feet of wire with something exotic, expensive (cool looking, and packaged in a pricey box) is going to make a difference?

I think it would be a close race between the SLK55 and an S2000 in auto-x, tires and driver being the difference. |

I've been encouraging my father to upgrade from his SLK350 into an SLK55. No luck yet. Maybe if I forward him this article containing wing's endorsement.  |

For me, would buy in this order:
S65
R63
SLK55
CLK63 Cabrio
SL65
ML63
CLS63
How about everyone else? All of those cars are mighty impressive. Lucky you Wing! |

For the family...the ML63 and the R63 would be quite the grocery getter. Where's the E wagon version?
