I hear the new C-class will be a re-badged Civic

Since it's daimler-CHRYSLER now, let's just hope they keep the Chrysler engines out of the bays of the tri-star cars. *cross fingers*

t'was a joke, don't spazz out And the S2000 should rightfully be a hard top, and it should have boost right from the factory. and 300hp to boast.

Benz are crusty compared to BMWs. I'd take a nice M3 over a SLK anyday!

Or I'd take a nice Z4 over a SLK for that matter too!

Benz are like old man cars... and when they get old.. some of their engines sound really kinda bad. My neighbours pretty much all own benz and bmws... the old benz sound like cheese farting when they're operating... but the old bmws sound still nice.

BMW rocks my world... (at least when it comes between benz and bmw)

Well, any car rocks my world as long as it is not made by Ford...

Speed kills, so drive a Ford and survive.

Why would they go from a Sexy hardtop to a crappy soft top. Doesn't make any sence

Anyone know if an S2000 is reliable? cause I heard that it was not; also, I saw autotrader has a whole bunch of s2000 and none are over 9,000 km.

I don't like the new SLK myself.

The back of the accord does look like the SL500, I mean the Accord lights.

not true, the hardtop is an option! the cars in 2000 and 2001 came with plastic rear windows....but if you get the hardtop (clicks into place and sits over the softtop) you get the defrsotster. In terms of '03 and 02' theyhave glass rear windows with defrosters. Once again the hardtop is an option.

I personally, think the OEM hardtop is nice if you opt for it or if you buy it later on. Regardless though, im partial to the mugen full carbon fiber one i will be ordering for christmas (6900 USD apparently) i still have yet to see it in cf but if they dont make it then i will buy the mugen one for sure.

Click on the image and see. The BMW's front is way too big and round and the rear end is too sharp up in the mid. S2000 and SLK's front end aims downward. Bimmer's aimed straight. Z4 is very big, not a small car at all. Not to mention Z4's got all types of lines in doors, front fenders and a wierd looking trunk. SLK and S2000 are smooth.

I'll try to get better images and you guys can use photoshop to merge the SLK and S2000 together and get the same car
