Range Rover SC or G55

Alright. What's it gonna be.

Range Rover Supercharged

vs.

Mercedes G55

Im looking for something to drive on a daily basis. Something to drive to school, run errands, go out with a group, etc.

What are your thoughts. It would be replacing a Range Rover Sport Supercharged.

Thanks.

IF you can stand the G55 suspension go for it. I have a friend who drives it as a DD.
Its a hell of a fun car, the power is great, but the ride is unbearable sometimes.

Every time we go out with a group of people, sometimes you hear the girls complain about the ride quality, that's when you know your suspension is stiff haha

G55 with the G500 suspension setup. The new '09s have a bunch of new stuff on them for example new wheels and the new 3-bar grille.

I daily drive an 08 RRS and absolutely love it. Picked it up end of May and now have 5k miles on it. So far no issues. The standard options are great, only thing extra I got was the cold weather package and some darker window tinting. I always wanted a G55 or and RR, but got a deal on the RRS I just couldn't resist.

If its between the two, hands down G55. The truck is timeless.

Yes, if you get the 55, you HAVE to get the 500 suspension set up.

I've always wanted a G55 but stuck with the RR and RRS instead. Like everyone said, comfort is not the G55's stgrong suit. Some people also think the G55 is butt ugly, but I like it.

SuperVixen, are you salsa dancing in that picture?
