In America is the Mercedes Benz SLK 350 Cabriolet Convertible called the CLK 350?

Question

Why did Mercedes make this so confusing. In America the SLK 350 is a roadster, while the British SLK 350 is a 4 passenger convertible like the vehicle known as the CLK 350 in the USA. What's with all the uneeded confusion by Damler Benz?

Answer 1

I think your wrong. The CLK and SLK cars are the same no matter what country they are sold in. The 350 is the engine size. To make sure I looked at MB USA and ENGLAND and the SLK comes up as a Roadster only in both.

Answer 2

From what I understand the CLK-class and SLK-class are two totally distinct automobiles. SLKs are MB's two-seat roadsters with a folding aluminum top. They embody the classic profile of golden era Benz roadsters (ala 300 SL roadsters from the 50s) much like the newer, more expensive SL-series of today. The SLK-class is supposed to be the poor man's MB roadster. It sells for half the price of a base '07 SL but is beautifully designed and crafted in its own right.
The CLK-class on the other hand are built off components from both the current C-class and E-class. It is considered MB's entry-level coupe but can be outfitted in a wide variety of motiffs based on the preference of potential buyers. I say entry-level because the distinction of Grand Poohbah of Mercedes Benz coupes fall on automobiles from the CL-class.
The CLKs also come in cabriolet variants. These are the 4-seater cabrios you might have come across. Although a bit conservative in styling, these cars are exquisitely made and sure to please.
With the alpha-numeric nomenclature employed by MB, there is bound to be alot of confusion with the model designations.

Answer 3

The clk and slk are totally different the slk being a very much more expensive car.

Answer 4

It sounds as if you are not only struggling with Christianity, but with believing in God in general. What you don't seem to be understanding is that God is all loving and merciful. Remember that God "hates the sin" of the homosexual person, not the individual person. A physician hates the cancer that is eating up the patient, not the patient. The physician does what is possible to heal the patient, but if the patient never seeks help to begin with, how can the doctor go against the patient's will ( "free will" ) and prescribe a necessary solution? "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened unto you." About the story of Adam and Eve: there have been many different interpretations, but if you read the Book of Genesis straight through (there are 50 chapters total), you will be enlightened about so many things. God not only created man out of thin air, He created the trees that give you shade, the birds of the air and the ground that you walk on out of thin air as well. God is omniscient and omnipotent... He is God. We cannot categorize Him or put Him into a box . Until the day we die, we will find ourselves perplexed over His mysteries, perhaps several times a day. Your concern about Christianity evolves around God's only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. God, the God of Abraham, manifested Himself in the form of a human being, so that people could be able to touch Him and relate to Him in a sensory way. We as human beings have always been limited. We need to be able to touch, taste, smell, see and hear in order to believe. We lack strongly in faith. Heaven and Hell are real. As I am typing this, there are souls rejoicing eternally. Unfortunately, there are also souls who are suffering immensely as you are reading this. Hell is repeatedly mentioned in the Bible, in both the New and the Old Testaments. Remember, angels are creatures which are above humans spiritually, but still, nonetheless, below God. Only God is perfect in purity and love. Anything that is imperfect and impure is cast out of Heaven, and therefore Satan and his comrades had to be thrown out. Once again, going back to free will, it was Satan's ultimate choice. This is where the whole battle began... the battle between good and evil. It continues today. Who's side are you going to be on? Here's one more thought for you: Did you know that if God chose to stop thinking about you for a split second, you would cease to exist? Just the fact that you are still alive and breathing means that your mission is not yet over. God Bless.

Answer 5

CLK andSLK are 2 different models Go to a Mercedes-Benz site and see.

Answer 6

the CLK have four seats;the slk are only for two; there is a difference in the way they look; you can differenciate between them.

Answer 7

Yes, the eurospec versions differ from american versions in classification. This is largely due to differences in drivetrains; i.e. engine size and what not.
