2010 RR Sport supercharged, anyone?

[cayenne-tt]

I heard the new range rover sport SC engine will have 500hp. Has anyone driven it? I'm thinking of it as a replacement for our 04 cayenne tt. Any feedback/thoughts on the rr sport sc? thanks!

Never driven one but I have seen a few while at local dealers picking up my 06 RR. The displacement has been increased to 5 liters which brings the power to 375 hp on the base model and ~500 hp supercharged.

How do you like your 06? I've heard alot of stories about poor reliablilty, etc. Do the recent cars still have such issues?

thanks!

theres 4 or 5 people i know that have had to have their RR towed multiple times, so sad because its such a nice vehicle.

06 had some issues, but the new ones should be MUCH better!

It has been fine but I have only been driving it for a few hundred miles. Bought it this past weekend. It had 25k original miles over almost 4 years. I've heard the 04 and 05 RR's were the ones with the issues. I heard if you go 06 and newer you'll be ok. Regardless, it is a great machine and I just love cruising in it.

I have two and 05 and 06. No major problems here. Ill never buy another truck again thats not a RR

thanks for the info guys! its good to hear the newer model years dont have problems

the local dealer won't have a 2010 sport sc for me to test drive until end of oct... I was hoping that someone might have driven it and could shed some light.

We are eyeing the 2010's also. The wife's current rover has 45,000+ on the clock with zero problems. I like the increased power of the 2010 RR Sc's but I think the wife just wants the base model.(she hates speed or loud cars) I think we will do something before Christmas. If you drive one before I do please post up your impressions.
