Honestly, if offered at the same price point as the current limited coupe...the 268hp V6 in the new SLK 350 would be more than enough to satisfy my desire for more power with this car. Sure some would prefer the V8...but I love the broad and smooth torque range of the german V6...even in the current 3.2.

My only other "wish list" items would be a bug-free traction control system that you could truly turn-off completely and more than one decent cupholder. I love everything else about the car especially the styling (they better not change that, it's the only thing they got perfect with the first generation of this car). Except for maybe that damn silver painted trim...body color matched would be a nice factory option for the limited. Heck even a standard option, does anyone actually think it looks good in silver? Must be a euro thing...
