I can see this in Dubai but in Los Angeles I go 0-60 in NEVER. I've gone 0-10 or 0-15 in 45 seconds. Not sure where you're driving this but wouldn't you want an M6 instead for your racing pleasure?

The numbers for the Range Rovers are not seconds but the number of things that go wrong with it during a 0-60 run :-)

Do any of us NEED BMW's in the first place? Did you NEED an X5? I would say any BMW is a step above basic transportation to begin with.

The Range has a roots type blower, which makes torque at a relatively low rpm. Torque is what gets these heavy things moving, but horsepower is what keeps it moving. The blower makes more torque, and that makes it accelerate harder than our 4.8i's.

Want to see what a Roots blower is capable of? Go to your local Cadillac dealer and test drive an 09-10 CTS-V! If that doesn't make you a believer, than there's NO hope for you!

Does that CTS have the typical Cadillac vinyl roof, too ?
