2 Silver GT3's spotted in Chicago
 
My brother lives in Chicago and called me today on his way to school said a silver GT3 with rollcage blew past him on the 355 freeway northbound? caught up to him at excess speed and noticed they were rolling up on another silver GT3 with a CF (i'm guessing RS) wing that had a bunch of digital equipment inside. He drives a black B6 A4 1.8T and said one of you waved back.

I don't think there are any GT3's in the US yet. There are a number of Carrera's with the aerokits that looks like the GT3. There are also aerokit cars out there with GT3 emblems on them so if you don't look close it looks like a real GT3. I think the first GT3's are coming in Nov.

Our Range Rover is the worst car I've ever had. The list of problems is too long to list and the service dept. at the local dealer is a joke. We're looking at SUV's to replace it and the Infiniti is on the list as are the Q7, Touareg and MB. The RR dealer actually called me to see if I was interested in a new one, I started laughing so hard I couldn't stop.

Do yourself a favor and avoid the 04 and 05 Touaregs. My 04 V8 brought me to the brink of insanity.

My brother in law has an 06 Touareg that he likes but gas mileage is horrible actually less than 10 mpg but he has a heavy foot. The Audi Q7 is leading the pack at the moment. I wish Lexus had the replacement for the LX available but that won't be until late 07, we had an LX 470 and it was flawless.

GX 470 here, love it. 17mpg on average which I cant complain about. Will replace with another Lexus.

Range Rover of Knoxville was the same way, service is a joke here to, offered my dad a brand new Range Rover SC. My dad told him straight up that he wanted a Cayenne or Infiniti :) but as all of them are pos, they imo are one of the best looking suv's on the road..
