i concur on the SLR. it looks too "busy" to be attractive... the eye doesn't know where to rest.

The SLR looks simply too long to me (and too busy as well). The hand built interpretation looks a bit better proportioned. Not my cup of tea either.

speaking of SLR's...even those who can afford them can't figure out how the doors work, wedging themselves in the process.

 Elaine : This is Captain Oever, Mr Murdock and Mr Basta. This is Joey Hammond. . . Oever : Well hi Joey. Murdock : Come on up here, you can see better. Oever : Sure. You ever been in a cockpit before? Joey : No sir, I've never been up in a plane before. Oever : You ever . . . seen a grown man naked ? Murdock : Do you want me to check the weather Clarence? Oever : No, why don't you take care of it. Joey, did ya ever hang around a gymnasium? Elaine : We'd better get back now Joey! Oever : Noooooooo, Joey can stay here for a while if he'd like. Joey : Could I? Elaine : Okay, if you don't get in the way. Murdock : Flight 2-0-9er to Denver radio, climbing to cruise at 42,000. Will report again over Lincoln. Over and out. Joey : Wait a minute! I know you. You're Kareem Abdul-Jabar. You played basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers. Murdock : I'm sorry son, but you must have me confused with some- one else. My name is Roger Murdock. I'm the co-pilot. Joey : You are Kareem! I've seen you play. My dad's got season tickets. Murdock : I think you should go back to your seat now Joey. Right Clarence? Oever : Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, he's not bothering anyone, let him stay here. Murdock : But just remember, my name is ROGER MURDOCK. I'm an airline pilot. Joey : I think you're the greatest, but my dad says you don't work hard enough on defence. And he says that lots of times, you don't even run down court. And that don't really try . . . except during the playoffs. Murdock : The hell I don't!! ( grabs joey by collar ) LISTEN KID! I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walton and Denier up and down the court for 48 minutes. Oever : Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
