When you want/need to give your ears a rest and a lighter clutch is appreciated but a roadster is wanted the SLK is a godsend :lol:

350 ft lbs of torque 340 bhp 0-60 in 4.1 0-100 in 10.2 167 mph top speed though going 167 in a plastic car must be frightening :|
 


I created a light clutch solution for my Chimaera 450 (modified pedal and alternative clutch assembly), now the pedal is as light as my partners shopping car.

I've also seen a brake servo plumbed into the clutch hydraulic line and that felt really light in comparison , but I'll probably just suffer it and end up with a massive left leg :lol:
 
The clutch can get really heavy when your stuck in heavy traffic. The servo solution is effective, but there is a lot of plumbing required.

Just enjoy it for the time being, you'll never look back (once bitten forever smitten). They were an awesome car in the day and still are.

My only tip would be to get a Manual Fan Over-ride switch for the radiator (peace of mind).
