The center console of the Boxster is not great, overall the interior of the SLK is much better.

The colour is über-cool on the SLK, inside and out! Love it!

However the Boxster is a clear winner for me.
You backstabbing MB fan,vote for SLK...j/k

Although i get ur points but i just can't pass the Boxter styling it's way too old a new one can't get soon enough IMO.On the other hand the SLK has all what it takes to be a modern fresh compact roadster

I agree for the first part: the SLK is too feminine, even with the FL. However, concerning the TT, well... no. I don't like the new TT, either. Preferred the first one too. In fact, I would say the Boxster is the best-looking.

I'm sorry...will you ever forgive me?
Honestly, for me the Boxster is still very fresh and looks very good. It's the center console that bothers me, for the rest I have only one thing to say: superb.

Well my problem with the boxter is pretty much like the 911 range all starting to look old and similar to me.For me the SLK is much better looking car looks like a mini SLR and that clever hard top dos it for me and it has the bet int in class by far...through in an AMG package then u got the hottest compact roadster on the planet

Re: Autobild: (FL) SLK 350 vs Boxster S

Boxster S is by far my clear favorite. My last MB was a nightmare.
Love the handling, performance, exhaust sound, and looks of the Porsche. GT Silver please. >
