That out of the SLK well known into the seats integrated Airscarf-heating provides also in open covering for comfortable temperatures on all four places. Surfaces in noble wood and leather form a luxurious ambience. Even the cover of the covering box carries bird eye maple. Further luxury-Features are screens in the front head supports, a DVD-unit as well as a champagne specialty between the foundation seat.

Under the sheet metal, the technology of the Mercedes S600 strikes. for propulsion provides such a 5,5-Liter-V12 with 517 HP and a maximal torque of 830 Nm. For the power river on the back wheels, Mercedes harnesses a five gear automatic control mechanism. Load work page it leaves the Cabrio however in a Stahlfeder-ABC-load work with 9X21 customs large rims ahead and 10X21 customs-wheels at the rear axle. The tire formats amount to all around 275/35. to the Sicherheitsaustattung of the Ocean Drive belong among other things a brake assistant, Pre-safe and a Distronic with Radarsensorik.
