It's amazing how Benz managed to cram all of their styling cues from their bigger cars into a little car like this...actually no it's not. It looks like it's a ramming tool to take down barricades or something.

Also, are they trying to de-value the SLS by making this <50k car have a nearly identical interior?

+1 on everything lol. Does anyone else think the SLK has always looked small and weird in its proportions? It still looks like a girls car too. Oh yeah and its a HUGE FAIL to give it the same interior as the SLS, wtf?

The SLS replaced the SLR, and the previous SLK resembled the SLR from the front, as well.
