This car has about as much personality as a soft pretzel. Another major flop from Ford.

Yeah, I agree...
If Ford were to go retro, why couldn't they go ALL the way? I mean, bring the cars back, but keep them the way they were. mmm... shelby cobra, here I come... |

BUT the only car that should ever be pink would be an old caddie. Anything else is just wrong.

In my opinion the SLK is quite an ugly car itself. Now the CLK...those are a totally different story.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think its just a modified motor (slightly more powerful).

From my understanding, the Kompressor is basically Mercedes version of a super charger. Which is why the 2.3L (4 cyl) Kompressor engine puts out more horsepower than the 2.6L (This is the engine in the C240 6 cyl) engine. |

mercedes kompressor cars are supercharged and usually intercooled. but the kompressor name is used because of what a supercharger does, it compresses air and forces it into the engine |
