New toy in the house..... (photos)

aznevoviii · 01-18-2007

hello,

I just got my SLK55 this morning,....

this thing ROCKS!!! i mean, I used to have 11 sec evo's and drift spec 240sx's, but this is def. different level of experience of cars...

I am so glad that sold my 06 IS350 for this car... and 240sx's...

(now, question. do all slk55's come with xenon lights!? or not)

**alroumi** · 01-18-2007

Glad your enjoying it my friend, Welcome to the forum.

Beautiful SLK 55, ENJOY! Bi-Xenons are OPTIONAL equipment on ALL USA SLKs including the SLK 55.

Beautiful, and welcome so what mods are next? coming from an evo and a 240, I know you are not going to leave it pure stock.

damn, you caught me.

i ordered green filters from SLKworld store, ordered H&R springs.

I might just go with factory rims with spacers, but if i can get a good deal again, with J-line wheels, than I would go with something custom offset setup.

That car is awesome, looks very similar to mine. read the general mod's area for some initial essentials. congrats!

Nice, that's a good start, lowered SLK will look great.

np,,
you should infact, have more and more items, (such as AMG merchandises) !!!

thank you!!

*easty* · 01-18-2007

Amg stuff is pretty sparse on the ground compared to some brands. a little thread here talking about it.

cyberdrakon · 01-18-2007

from mid-2007 and on, xenon will be standard on SLK 55.

Smart move. The SLK 55 deserves the best lighting available. What's your source for this information?

cyberdrakon · 01-19-2007

whoops...i guess they aren't going to make it standard...i was looking at a list of proposed changes for the 2007 model (when i was looking for my 2006 slk55) and i guess they didn't do it...sorry.

If they're in fact BRAND NEW R171 bi-xenon light assemblies (in new, undamaged condition) with lights and ballast, that's a great price. Don't hesitate. What's you procurement source?
