Is anyone using the Minimax S500P US BS?

The last time I saw a Minimax BS was about 4 years ago at the Melbourne show and it was a very impressive performer....... even resawing 12 inch boards. And that was the entry level SP45 demonstrated by Gabbets.

The S500P US under consideration is marketed by SCM as a high end no compromise Italian saw I’d be interested in if someone can verify its performance.
