This 1998 Mercedes-Benz SLK230 was sold new through Mercedes-Benz of Lynnwood, WA in December 1997. It remained with the original owner in the Pacific Northwest until April 2021 when it was acquired by the selling dealer. Finished in Yellowstone (685) over Black Leather (221A), the car is powered by a 2.3-liter M111 4-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed automatic transmission. Features include an electric-folding paint-matched hardtop, an original Becker head unit, dual-zone climate control, retractable cup holders, and an OEM built-in phone with console controls. This R170 currently shows 55,263 miles on the odometer and is offered with a clean Carfax showing dealer maintenance since new, manufacturer's literature, two original keys, and a clean Washington State title. 

Finished in Yellowstone (685), this car has been well-kept and retains original paint on all fenders, hood, trunk, roof, and quarter panels. Paint meter readings have been provided in the gallery.
