sorry I meant the SLK320


it's just a V6 3.2L

AMG added a Supercharger to produce like 389 HP or something.

the SLK320 is other wise a pretty slow car

only 215 HP. 3120 curb weight, it sounds like it's comparable with an IS300 which is a very high 14 second car at best, but we all know mercedes alone isn't about performance but add a little AMG, then we got a nice little packgage of luxury and performance but expect to pay about 20 grand more for the upgrades ..

i believe amg removes the 0 after the model name for all the cars they do, so i think it's actually slk32 amg

I'm sure AMG doesn't care much for 1/4 mile times, since they did a lot more than supercharge it.
