How ironic it is that SLs with SL2 screens fetch more than plain SLs. My take on it. You will use, admire and enjoy the SL2 but will eventually replace it with an R4 5 6 or 7 and sit the SL2 on a shelf The newer Rs are just more user friendly and easier to focus, particularly the R5 and up. Or as a not so famous rich guy once said I love my 365BB but I use my 308GTB for daily driving.
