Technically, I posted that specific link. Well, at least recently. Smile But close enough...

Sorry Grommet! It is still an interesting read though. I suspect the SRT will go down well with the Footballers/ Soccerplayers and their wives over here..... which can only be good for the image of the RRSport! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

A friend of mine picked up one in Florida recently, FYI... and I did get to drive it around. It has some serious pull -- if you weren't paying attention, you'd think it was a sports car. I think he paid $50K USD out the door (including taxes, fees, etc.)

A Porsche Cayenne Turbo S starts at $111K USD, and is .1 sec slower 0-60. Smile

The new Grand Cherokee is one the most god awful cars made.

Interestingly, a previous post said that RRS S/C in development had (Probably) this much power, but 4x4 system was so good it spun the rims, not the tyres.

I think (Question ) this means RRS is still the superior car.

Besides, as a certain tyre compnay saya, "Power is nothing without control" Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad

Good performance... but looks like crap and the interior's very tacky too. Shockingly cheap for the poke, though - the Monaro of the SUV world! Smile

Maybe the performance on a straight is better from the GC but I wan't to see that thing in a curve. Once it hits the track I'll bet you that the Cayenne is worth every penny.
Plus you are paying for exclusivity, overall performance, and quality. Once you go european (in cars) you never go back (to american or japanese, maybe lexus)

Personal opinion by the way, I don't mean to offend anyone. Diego Paredes Fontanals
