Personally, I don't get it. I can't think of a more
gas efficient vehicle. For each tank of gas, you
get an agile, luxurious, beautiful (and sexy),
wind in your face ride

I didn't actually cross-reference the lists, but if I recall correctly, the SLK55 is the only car on both Forbes' Coolest High Tech Cars and Luxury Gas Guzzlers list.

It sounds like there's nothing left to do but--hurry on down to your nearest Yugo dealer (that might be in Sarajevo)! Dinoman

I just did 9.4 liters per hundred km's just today during a 160km trip. That's pretty darn efficient when you begin to compare it to the other super cars on offer.
