best car 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class ranks 4 out of 6 Luxury Sports Cars. This ranking is based on our analysis of 8 published reviews and test drives of the Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
The newly-redesigned Mercedes-Benz SLK isn’t the best performer in the class, but reviewers say it’s still an extremely satisfying sports car with just the right mix of luxury and driving fun.
Previous generations of the Mercedes-Benz SLK have been seen as a sports car that’s more about looks than performance. The 2012 SLK fights that perception, reviewers say. Though most reviewers agree that the SLK still isn’t an exceptional performer, they do say it skillfully mixes luxury with a sporty drive, resulting in a car that’s equally at home on Sunday drives and Monday commutes.
The 2012 SLK is a two-seat hard-top convertible. The redesign added some impressive features, including a glass roof panel that can darken to keep the cabin cool, a revamped and easy-to-use infotainment system, and premium cabin materials that reviewers love. They’re also extremely positive about the SLK’s revamped styling, saying the SLK looks expensive and exotic. What reviewers don’t love is the SLK’s sometimes-touchy throttle response and price, which starts high and rises quickly when buyers start adding optional features.
Overall, reviewers agree that the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK is a very good car. Its performance is muted compared to other luxury sports cars, which irks some reviewers. Other reviewers, however, recognize that not all buyers are looking to test their driving skills every time they get behind the wheel. For drivers who want a comfortable cruiser that can be reasonably sporty when asked, reviewers recommend the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK.
