Definitely supercharge it! But more importantly - wait for the one you really want. Don't settle for something you don't want. The right rover will show up, just have some patience and keep looking everywhere.
What to choose? Your thoughts
White/Black. s/c or non. Black/brown
To let you guys know. I want the brown interior, BUT black exterior. I'd rather have it s/c as well. Being CPO is essential, so both check out. What do you guys think about the prices?

I liked the Black and Tan or black beige combo but after having a 2011 Sumatra black and beige interior, the denim color gets transferred and a pita to clean. Then got the 2013 santorini black and black and never looked backed. The contrast stitching looks classy and elegant.

I second that. I have 21k on my 2013 and I am a little crazy OCD on cleaning my truck it still looks showroom new inside and out with the santorini and black oxford interior. The white contrast stitching is a must with the black interior though.I liked the Black and Tan or black beige combo but after having a 2011 Sumatra black and beige interior, the denim color gets transferred and a pita to clean.

Also if you just go and tell your dealer what your looking for they will find one and get it for you. If you haven't already noticed by the time you waffle here asking opinions they already are sold and that trends isn't going to stop with everyone buying up l320's not wanting the new explorer.
These are my thoughts as well; as stated in my earlier post, over a yr now, I tend to look once a week or so & the demand has DEFINITELY increased, seemingly driving the prices up! I just had that conversation with someone adding about mine and saying that they were thinking about getting in 1; I wonder is it bc of the new ones being so high?..Is it just me or has the value/demand increased for late model L320's as of late? I myself like the new Sport but still prefer the L320 body style & maybe many others also do which is jacking up prices?

My dealer has offered me almost what I paid in dec 2012 for mine on trade for a new sport or FFRR. I waffles on the full size but have absolutely no desire for the new sport.
Once the defender comes out though all bets are off.

Quite honestly, i've seen very little 494's roaming around, even in Glorious Bellevue. Haha. That's the very reason why I've become even more aggressive in trying to snag me my 320 sooner rather than later.
1. "Good" ones are few and far between
2. They're becoming more rare
3. They're at least retaining they values, if not getting more expensive!
As far as the black/tan combo, denim color from jean's transfers even to that? I could see with the much lighter interior of beige would adhere to the denim bleeding off more profoundly, but with the darker tan? It's tough because the first and last time I personally saw a black/tan combo was the one that I "let go".
Don't get me wrong, black/black is elegant and more would argue, timeless. However, to me, black/tan is a wonderful combination of eye-appealing contrast! Nonetheless, both color combos can't be BEAT!!

I can't imagine the top speed will be much over 120 though.Once the defender comes out though all bets are off.

Get the one with more cowbell - supercharged:thumb:
the other rover ad seems to be touting the 480-WATT HARMAN KARDON LOGIC7 AUDIO SYSTEM more than the truck itself.

No way would I spend over $50K for a non SC RRS. Crazy pricing indeed
*puts flame suit on*
What do you guys think about the new JGC SRT8?
What do you guys think about the new JGC SRT8?
I like it actually. Not quite in the same league (brand value and luxury wise) as the RRSS, but I've read great reviews about its on-road driving manners.*puts flame suit on*
What do you guys think about the new JGC SRT8?
I took a 2014 out for a spin a few weeks ago. I went with my little sister to get her new limited GC and salesman was trying to convince me to trade in my rover. Here's my thoughts on the srt8...*puts flame suit on*
What do you guys think about the new JGC SRT8?
It's really noisy. I enjoy exhaust notes and like a little noise. The srt8 sounds like a rousch mustang inside with all windows up. Would start to get old once you want to just drive.
The suspension is very race tuned and stiff. It's barely 1/3rd the quality of ride as a RRS. The lesser GC is a nice rising vehicle as I have driven my sisters a few times now. I will say it handles very similar to a bmw x drive car but a whole lot stiffer.
The stereo lacks refinement. It's very fancy gadget wise with a big screen and lots of apps and menus. Very similar to wife's new Santa Fe just lacks the high quality clarity of the RRS system. That might be due to it just being a loud chassis design with a lot a of feedback from sport suspension.
Fit and finish is ok exterior inside is nice. I don't like all the chrome trim around windows and grilles etc.
It dies have slightly more interior room than l320 in back seats and cargo area.
I feel it's a King of the trailer park jeep model. It's 73k for noisy stiff and fast. I will say that they claim 475hp and at first drive doesn't feel 100 hp more than my HSE and is def not as fast as a SC sport.
The reason I asked is my local dealer had me test out one of their '12 model SRT8's. Great looking rig, don't get me wrong, but as soon as mentioned I was on the market for a RRS, they started down playing it and building up the JGC. Go figure.:naughty: My first impressions,
1. Interior felt CHEAP. No way around it. I don't care if it had similar amenities the RRS i.e. heated steering, heated seats, HID bixenons, etc
2. The ride was very "sporty", not entirely firm, but solid; much more car like. It wasn't as forgiving to road impurities as the RRS's i've driven.
3. Yes, it was very NOISY.
4. On paper, it's faster than even the RRS s/c; did it FEEL faster? Not even close
5. Brakes were VERY competent even after a few freeway halts
6. The infotainment system/sound system was, well, Jeep. My friend's Mazda CX5 GT had a better system than it. If I'm paying anywhere north of 40k for a vehicle, that sound system better please me! Nonetheless, the sluggish RRS non-HDD system is no champ either lol
7. When I walked away, locked the truck and looked back, I didn't receive anywhere NEAR the satisfaction of knowing that I just stepped out of my range rover.:sad:

I did see that in my search. Honestly, I'm sure the work put into the exterior was extensive, but for me, it's too flashy! I'd be devastated if I got a scratch on THAT let alone one without the fancy kit.
