Why Not the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK?

Exterior styling

I feel the styling on the SLK300 is looking a little dated now. It is a fine looking car, but compared to the BMW Z4 2009 is no longer in the same class for me.

Discounts & incentives

Mercedes were not allowed to offer the same incentives as BMW for buying export cars in the UK. Working in Euros only their pricing was considerably more expensive at the time, this may have been resolved since. Working abroad, this was important.

Powertrain performance

For your money you get more bang for your buck from the BMW Z4 2009. And it sounds sweeter too!
