Default SLK350 vs. SL500

I had a '99 SLK, then an '03 SL500, and now an '07 SLK350. I loved the SL500 for the looks (gets lots of attention!), and the high quality of the interior materials. The SLK interior feels a little cheesy by comparison. Bu that's acceptable for a car that's half the price of the SL!
I like the SLK for the engine and the lighter weight which makes it feel more responsive. I also like the size, so I can park it without worrying about someone dinging my doors - a constant problem with my S-Class.
I might end up in an SL again someday, but for now I'm enjoying the ride in my little SLK!
