Just as an update to this thread, we ended-up buying the '09 SLK 350 off the lot from our local dealer. It was outfitted as we would have done had we ordered it ourselves (Iridium / Ash / Premium I / Heating), except it unfortunately does not have the lighting package. We did the deal on the last day of the month, and I felt comfortable with pricing. All in all, a good experience.

What a car! My wife loves it. It was tinted yesterday afternoon, and will be in for an exterior detail and clear bra on Monday of next week. Once we get that buttoned-up, I will post some pictures.

The 7G seems to hunt a bit at low throttle inputs, but I am hoping that will disappear as the miles add-up. And add-up they will . . . my wife is planning to use it for her 80 mile-per-day commute!

Thanks to everyone for the helpful responses to my initial post. I am looking forward to sharing more with the board as we enjoy our new SLK.
