Other than not haveing the big picnic table wing on the back, 98% of people would not notice the difference between a srt and a limited (other than the badges which can be purchased anywhere)
I do not share your opinion. Brakes and body were modified for the SLK32/SRT-6 by Meredes for safety reasons. Who knows what else has been modified during this hack job or how it effects the safety of the car.
I have seen SRT-6's sell for under $15K.
