I'm new to the forum having just taken posession if my 55 and here are my commnets:

In the article there is no mention as to the increase in cost. Is current thinking MB will continue to use the 5.5 in the SLK or go to a turbo'd 4.0? I can imagine them going with a smaller displacement for fuel economy but turbo'd for performance.
