That will give a few people a run for their money. Hmmm, 6,000 lbs. and 0-60 in the mid-5 secs. That should give my Z a run for it's money if I have a so-so launch. My brother's Jeep SRT-8 kills me everytime though. Damn SRT-8's. That Jeep is an absolute beast. The Americans really can do some things right. It's also built well too. Sorry, I know. Off-topic.
Built well?

The '08 Range Rover Supercharged I got for my girlfriend has been the most unreliable car we've ever had. But, sure...it is built well in terms of feel. Thank God the lease is almost up.

Oh man JoeD. Sorry to hear it. We've had really good luck with ours. (Think about all the systems in that car that most don't have. Yeah, like people say, "Just another thing that could go wrong.") We've had a few minor quibbles here and there, (Check engine light which turns out to be nothing but a reflash, and the power tilt wheel that went out, but all-in-all, they've been awesome. Hence, we MUST buy another. Ha ha! We have an '06 Sport SC and '08 Full Size SC. We love them. Like you said, they are pretty cool to drive.

Our friend who posted should just get what he'd likes. You'll run into things you don't like on any car. (My Z has plenty of flaws, but I still love it.) Go with your gut, and you'll usually win.

The Range Rover and everything ever built by that company, in every iteration and ownership, is the most overrated vehicle on the planet. But somehow they snagged the suburban housewife with a stange marketing dance...the rest is history.

Don't take the RR Sport around a corner at high speed unless you enjoy the taste of weeds.

I wouldn't go that far. Range Rover makes the world's premier luxury-SUVs. When it's running properly and the instrument-cluster is not lit up like a Christmas tree...they are fantastic.

Exactly my point. And why would you need the absurd amount of HP in the Range Rover Sport?

Laughable how this drug-store merchant can piss on Americans and American cars as he does, especially since the only auto industry in Canada is American.

Clearly also talks out his

Go back to selling suppositories, stick to what you know.

LOL.

wow, what a retard

I'm sure you are very well educated and very brilliant professional



Ok, now back to selling suppositories. They work great for constipation, in case you get it. Do you want me to tell you where to put it?
