well, again, look at the mercedes parts bin, the slk320 got a 6spd manual, but the SLK32 was only a 5spd auto. I guess they just don't have a 6spd manual sitting around to take that kind of heat, so they just bolt up a 5spd auto from one of the V8 cars and call it good, plus, AMG has a theme going with all their automatic transmission cars.
