I thought a RR was a toy, for a trophy wife, bought by a guy, who has way too much money

The exact same thing happened with the 2005 Mustang, the MINI, and even the Chrysler 300 for that matter. No car can stay the 'new car to have' forever, and when that effect wears off the folks who bought one simply because it was cool will move on to the new cool car or a more expensive/prestigious cool car. It's how the car does after that 'it factor' wears off that really matters.

That's very true. That's why I haven't gotten caught up in the sales figures like some on here. Let's see where they are five years from now. Then we can say for sure if it was a home run for not. I hope it is.

Hope you got a warranty on that

Those things are money pits.

You're losing money either way...

I'm not going to sell my SS because it's worth less than when I bought it. That's the nature of buying a car.

Maybe you just wanted another car because the novelty wore off...it's your choice, but I would be concerned about deep discounts on a used vehicle that could be sold for much more. Either there's something wrong with it or it's not really worth that much.

Regardless, good luck.

I like range rovers, but it would need to look like this in order for me to trade my Camaro in.

We all do what we have to!!

"There is no special road map in life. You just pick the road you like the best."

My 2 cents If you are going to make a "killing on The RR, better start now!!

You might find a crazy guy by the time the Z28 comes out..

It sounds like a great deal...It also sounds too good to be true. I hope nothing is wrong with it. Congrats

H1Chester · 09-26-2010, 11:59 AM

Dude, seriously? Why in the hell would you get a Range Rover??? Be prepared to lose a lot of money when that POS is in the shop all the time!!!

Yeah they are nice but from what I have heard parts and labor are a B!#@H.... You cant go down to your local Auto Parts store and buy stuff, gotta hit the dealer... But a Nice ride. For example, someone I new needed a New fog light bulb $250. oil changes $150.00 etc...
