I've noticed this as well. The CLK convertible is often priced lower than even the V6 camaro. This may be due to the limitations of only 2 seats an no luggage versus 4 seats (albeit uncomfortable in the back) and enough room for at least a couple bags in the trunk with the Camaro.
Tried renting a CLK for a day in HNL last spring but they were out when I arrived to pick it up so got a Camaro SS instead.

1/ I don't see any other JTAR cars listed on the wiki. Am I correct thinking that the only car I can expect is a SLK250 Convertible?
2/ Is it possible that they don't have this car available for me on pick up even if I reserve it now?
3/ Why is the SLC/SLK cheaper than a camaro convertible? Isn't the mercedes a much "better" car? Is it older?
