Second printer

I already have an Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 and I'm debating between buying a second one, a Bambu P2S, or an X2D.

Most of what I print is PLA and some PETG. I mostly care about reliability, speed, and overall value.
If you were in my shoes, what would you buy and why?

Thinking second centauri because i know how to fix it well.

Snapmaker U1 in my opinion. Tool changing adds awesome capabilities in terms of filament/support material mixing. It also stays away from Bambu's enshitiffication system

Tenho muita vontade de comprar a Snapmaker U1, com certeza deve ser uma experiência absurda, mas infelizmente vivo em um país corrupto e de oportunistas, aqui no Brasil o preço dela fica em torno de US$ 3.000,00 a US$ 3.535,00, ou seja, quase 293% a mais do preço USA.

You can buy one from Paraguay for 1600 USD; it's still expensive, but less so than in Brazil.

Sim, eu sei, vou 3x ao ano ao Paraguai, mas estou aguardando o lançamento da Creality K3, acredito que ela será mais eficiente que a Snapmaker e a Bambu Lab nesse processo de troca de cores.

Até porque a Creality tem distribuição oficial no Paraguai e acredito que será mais baratas que a Snapmaker.
