Still one of the best interiors ever put in a car. The older it gets, the more I appreciate it.

I owned on r129 ,very nice car ,,but an r230 blows it away. The interior r230 is classy, r231 it's got technology overkill and different materials then the wood classy look! The outside is a matter of taste but I preferred the outside of the R230 , r231 looks like a spaceship.. The performance of the R2 31 for outweighs the performance of the R2 30. I feel like the r129 was based upon the comfort, and r230 perfect mix of comfort and sportiness, and r231 is a pure sports car

I have one of these but I am scared to drive. It's a 2004 and has only 50K miles. When breaks its costly. I had a Porsche 996 I was driving that car as if its a Camry. I hit the bottom and cracked the oil pan, engine seized, totaled the car. I mist my Porsche. SL is a nice and heavy cruiser, Porsche was more sporty and faster and gave me more satisfaction. I am hoping to buy a Turbo one day or why not a Turbo S? :))

@@jrh2095 - I drove the 550 from San Antonio to Corpus Christi (125miles) on a full tank @ 80mph (cruise control) and arrived with 3/4's of a tank. The car was on auto (transmission) and it has 7 gears. So thats highway miles. I waste more gas on manual mode (paddle shifters) if I weave in and out of traffic and keep the rpms high during heavy traffic. So it all depends on your driving style.
