I think that would be the logical option in the states but other countries charge taxes by the engine size so it still might be cheaper to mod it. I believe they have to pay taxes on their cars yearly like our registrations, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Mod's are only a one-time fee.
Pre-owned SLK55 are going so cheap, I'm very tempted to trade mine in. But my SLK has sentimental values, I ordered it, anxiously waited for it to be build, picked it up in Germany, etc.. plus the main reason, I can't do it is b/c of the 6sp. I still prefer a clutch.
