Considering SL1

I currently shoot a 30D and I am considering an SL1 for a 2nd body - I will be keeping my 30D.  I don't want to spend near $1,000 for 70D / 7D, etc.  But I see the SL1 at $399 right now and it is tempting.  This will be a 2nd body - probably my main vacation camera if I get it.  But I would also like to use it for my general photography along with my 30D.

I don't do much sports photography any more so high FPS is not a major concern - the 30D has been fast enough and I will keep it.  I do mainly landscape, buildings, cars, people, vacation photos.  The one thing I would like to improve is high ISO performance.  The 30D is not good over ISO 400 and I would like some higher ISO performance for night / low light.

What are everyone's thoughts on an SL1 as a good 2nd body for me?
