I like it...

Not the color.. but the car..
If the new X5 is less than par, put me on the list for one.

Anyone driven one yet? Im eager to find out what X5 owners think of it. I saw a couple at local dealer, but my dad wont test drive it "for fun".

7.1? That's it? That's not that fast considering how much power it's got. It must be damn heavy.

Im almost positive its faster than that. It must be a pig.

btw, did you guys notice the first pic: theres one Silver X5 4.4 SP in middle of the herd of LR's.

One of my best friend has one (not the supercharged), it's a beautifull design on the outside, but the inside is cheap plastic, which has always been the problem with Land Rover, they never seem to go the extra mile. I used to own a 1995 Range Rover, it was thw most comfortable car I ever had, but the most expensive one as well, in term of maintenance, it was always in the shop. Just think, even BMW (when they owned Rover) couldn't make it work! And every years it's on the least reliable car list.

I like it, but if I were to buy one it would be a normal Range Rover. I would get a 2005 Range Rover Westminster, the last one before they switched over to Ford.

I don't know if it comes in manual. The two different engines it is available in are:

4.4-litre, 300-hp V8
4.2-litre, 390-hp supercharged V8

Only the supercharged comes with the Brembos and they are only on the front brakes.

I'd get the supercharged version of the normal Range Rover... I like that a lot. The interior is better than the Sport, and I think it has the same engine.
