That is about the import number of 190E 2.3-16 valve cars in the 1985 to 1987 period of their production. The 16 valve cars are indeed rare and sought after rides, and worth substantially more than the "standard" 190E's.

You could be more accurate than you think...

I am curious to know how these production numbers compare with the total number of SLKs produced during this period.

US figures (production):

2002 1182
2003 562
2004 312

UK figures (number imported in quoted year):

2001 70
2002 169
2003 29
2004 3

So yes, "as rare as hens' teeth" as Mercedes Enthusiast wrote in July 2005. They also wrote "Verdict. The SLK32 AMG was surely one of the best roadsters Mercedes built in years".
