    '99 Mercedes SLK w/ NXT. (56 maybe)

    Today I did a Black '99 Mercedes Benz SLK Roadster. This car is NICE, but the build quality was a bit shabby. The doors rattle more than my '97 Camaro. But the materials were first rate. Even though this car is small...it's a major pain to clean because of all the small nooks and cranies it...
