Yes that's the first year. Mine is a '04 and I don't have any more problems than anyone else. Remember that the chassis is nothing new, straight from the MB SLK -- they made hundreds of thousands of these engine trannny chassis combos. Judge each of these on it's own merits the technology is sound.
