The 2002 Mercedes-Benz SLK marks the last year of the first generation of this compact luxury roadster. Known for its unique hardtop convertible design, it's available in two trims, the SLK 230 Kompressor and the SLK 320. The former comes with a supercharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine providing 192 horsepower, while the latter houses a 3.2-liter V6 engine capable of generating 215 horsepower. Both engines are mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission powering the rear wheels. Standard features include power-adjustable seats, leather upholstery, and a state-of-the-art (for its time) Bose stereo system. While advanced safety features like blind-spot monitoring are absent due to its vintage, it still boasts of features like stability control and side airbags. The slick aesthetics and performance orientation of the SLK made it a popular choice for those seeking a luxury sports convertible in the early 2000s.
