The new front end is growing on me. I still think the current nose is more distinctive, but I haven't seen a 2010 in the flesh yet, only pictures.
Hey, Lschor. Excellent, excellent pic. Question for ya... What are the chances you could talk to your dealer and ask if that one was Buckingham Blue, or Bali Blue. The reason being, we are buying a Bali Blue one, but I would hope it's more vibrant than that. It looks like the Buckingham FFRRSC we have now. Thank you so much if you could find that out. Again, thanks for the pic. I can't wait to see this beast. I love it just from pictures.lschor said:So, I went to the dealership for Service and they had just gotten in a new 2010 RRS. I was really considering trading in my 06 for the new RRS until I saw it. While, the new interior is AWESOME -- a much needed upgrade - I do not think I like the new front of the car. I feel a little like a trader even suggesting this. I wonder if I'm the only one or if others are also unsure about the new front?
Why wouldn't a supercharger work so great at high altitude? I thought it (and turbos) were the cure for the thin-air problem. They seem to work well on airplanes, which undergo an even wider variation in altitude.maxwell said:Especially for us high altitude folks....superchargers don't work so great up here, and the 300hp engine feels like 200 in thin air.

Umm Roverfreak, the Porsche Cayenne may have about the ugliest front end in SUV history...one only a momma manta ray could love.RoverfreakNH said:I personally , don't like the final front bumper at all...The new sport is either going to drive me to a Full Size supercharged or autobiography or start looking at Cayenne GTS or Turbo, again.

Thanks Umberto! I was a little worried because I think that stereo rocks! It's the best stereo I've ever heard actually. I guess some people really have some good ears that want even more. A great feature with the system is being able to adjust the sub. That baby can really blast you out of the car if it's set too high. I wish I had that adjustment on my other cars. Good to "hear" it's still on the 2010. Thanks again for the feedback. Now I'm still trying to figure out if that pic posted above is Buckingham or Bali Blue. Any input on that? It sure looks like Buckingham to me.umbertob said:Weatherman, I believe the sound system is going to be the same on the 2010s as it was on 06-09s, all 2010 press releases and literature make no mention of improvements or changes to it (besides the new iPod / USB ports and touchscreen interface.) In North America the only sound system available for the RRS (both HSE and S/C models), regardless of trim or package, is the high line HK Logic7 system, standard equipment here but an extra cost option on many other markets.
The Weatherman said:RoverFreak... Is the Harmon Kardon Logic 7 system standard? I thought it was the premium sound system. Am I missing something? Our '06 RRSS blows my '09 Infiniti FX's upgraded Bose system out of the water... with flying colors. The Sport sounds as good as our FFRRSC HK Logic 7 system. Did they change something with the stereo for the 2010? Does anyone know?

Woah! The new Full Size has a 1200 watt system? Does our '08 Full Size Supercharged have that too? Good God that's a lot of power.RoverfreakNH said:The Weatherman said:RoverFreak...

Exactly the same system, I'm saying for the $$$ of going for a supercharged, they should give it the same 1200 Watt system as the Full size supercharged or Autobiography, or make it an option for the sport super charged.
