The car is an icon today, evidenced by the fact that nice, low mile, preowned Z8's still cost almost as much to buy today as they did new. That's certainly not the case with an SL.

It was never intended to be a huge deal. They were hand assembled. It is not considered a flop. They are beautiful cars and willbe highly collect someday. Go back and read your first post. What exactly was your point??? "Plus the SL is built for comfort over driving experience. If you want thrills you get a Porsche 911. Thats makes this piece of garbage useless as BMW's are made for driver thrills not comfort." WTF are you talking about here? My statement initially was about the BMW being the better drivers car. You bash and support at the same time. Also your posts are very difficult "text message style" gibberish. When you quote someone and try to bash them, make sure you get your point accross.
