GT vs SL

This article pretty much sums up the differences: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a3...0Non%20Openers

The fact that the article states that the new AMG GT will have two vestigil rear seats, like the AMG SL, will cause many in the AMG world to pitch a fit. A major fit. Should be fun to watch all the backtracking that will take place from those who denigrated the AMG SL in part because it had the backseats.

The latest SL has no back seats. I consider it a true roadster albeit with a retractable hardtop so some will say it's not a roadster. Who cares.

This looks like rear seats to me. Granted many would not care, I among them.

I believe he is referring to the 231 since he mentions retractable hardtop.
