Nov 17: Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG indepth (again)

[TT]

Quite simple for once :D

Again Shin's SLK55. Actually the first time we met, I took some pics, but it was before the indepth section was created and I didn't really try as hard as I could, so I had to jump on this new opportunity to take some more and update that page ;)

The perfect little car IMO, looks very aggressive and sounds nice too! :D

Thanks for the new pics, the combos with the 360 are my favourites. :D

Thanks for the new pictures near the forest :D

picture 41 from the front-side is the best of the new ones IMO, followed by #44

[TT]

Thanks guys ;)

Those pics in front of that white and blue building could have been better with nobody inside the cars, but it was a firestation and those glass doors are the way the trucks have to go out if needed and we didn't really want to just park the cars and start taking pics LOL, so we just stopped 1 min with engines running and all, to be ready to let them exit just in case ;)

Oh, the Modena will be the next indepth obviously ;)

Really, really nice feature! Thanks a bunch. Moreover wine red is my favorite interior colour.

I noticed something that made me curious, when I looked at the tyres - don't you guys use tyre polisher? In my opinion it's a 'must' when making your car look good, moreover it protects the tyres.

nice pro pics

i like the shot with the F360

and nice car this SLK 55AMG, Shin good choice but i would buy BMW645 ci :twisted:

thanks for pics looking forward to reading watching next indepth

When I review fast of colleagues from Switzerland. I notice it, that there great cars commute completely, in nothing Monaco, Marbella or Cannes.

Well, some do, others don't. IMO it looks too fake when a car has "polished" tires.. just pointless, it's like polishing the inside of the muffler or something like that LOL. Tires are meant to be used, and polished ones have such a delaership/motorshow feel :?
Shin is a car polishing freak BTW, so if he doesn't do the tires there must be a reason too ;)

Amazing pictures!! :shock: .... as usual :D

That's a really good looking car, maybe the best of Mercedes 8)

[vakpemil]

Nice!!!!! :D I love the SLk55 AMG! 8)

[raphaelws]

SLK is fabulous!! but.. give me choice between SLK and Modena..
I'll take Modena 8)

nice again TT

[No.1]

Despite bing an uncool car (The Cool Wall) - these pics are fantastic 8)

I wouldn't dare park outside a fire station, but if you need to move out of the way quickly, surely a 360 and SLK55 can't be too slow to get away in :P

Thanks again TT.... i need to go save them one day

[davide]

wow, that phot when the modena and 55 sits next to each other is juuuust heaven!!

the black looks so real and smooth... how did you do that? looks brilliant!!!

thanks alot!

[Wutputt]

Another great set of pics! I most like the combo shots with the black 360, just because of the 'contradiction' in the colours of both cars.

And Shin, you've a really nice car ;)

Thanks to the polarizer filter, lot of reflections are removed, and that's them that often "ruin" a black car

I polish my wheels a few times a year (usually when I polish my car), but the polish only stays on for a short while. It's been a few months since I did it, so you can't see the effect on the wheels anymore.

Besides, tire polishing substances are a real pain to work with, they're very oily.

A BMW 645 is not as quick or nimble as the SLK, but it has more seats. I think they're very different cars.
