2007 Mercedes SLK-Class Sports Package

Mercedes-Benz has introduced a new sports package for the 2007 Mercedes SLK-Class. A lowered sports suspension with 18-inch wheels, a more beefy braking system, an AMG breakaway edge at the rear and, as an option, the new 7G-TRONIC Sport automatic transmission with steering-wheel shift paddles improve the agile handling characteristics of the Roadster even further. In models equipped with V6 engines, a specially developed air filter creates an even more throaty sound. The most noticeable highlights in the interior include red seat belts, red topstitching, black roof lining and carbon-like black trim. Depending on the engine version, sports package for the SLK-Class is between 1,148.40 and 1,612.40 euros. So far, no word on U.S. pricing or availability. Gallery after the jump...
