What modern Leica has colours as spectacular as my Type240?

My Type240 is astonishingly great at vintage film looking images straight out of camera. I’ve read that the SLS-2 is the closest to those colours, while the M11 the furthest. Can someone who has experienced the Type 240 and SLS-2 comment?  Many thanks!

It is not the camera - it is the settings in your raw converter... Actually the M240 was the hardest camera I ever had to get correct (to my eyes) colour out of.  It took me weeks to get the profile just right. BTW, I really like the colours in your shots. If you can get that out of a M240, your almost certainly will be able to get it right out of the SL2s as well.

The M10 is arguably still acceptable, but less vibrant nad saturated
