I am testing a 17 SL Platinum right now (in red). The steering feels much better than the pre-face lifted version for some reason, it rides well and the platinum seats are really comfy. That makes it fairly pleasant to live with, but there's two things really bugging me. First is the 2.5L CVT combo....merging, passing, and even just getting up to speed between stop lights sounds and feels way more laboured than it should. The other thing is the infotainment and controls, definitely due for an update. Even the audio control knobs are silly, they're recessed just a bit, which prevents ones fingers from gripping the rubberized sides of the knob, the only place to grip is the slippy polished chrome edge of the knob, so I am constantly fumbling with them.
