Supercharged Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography. The Greg Norman Range Rover I won last year was surprisingly fast for such a huge car & it only had the 375 hp 5 litre enginen. It understeered a bit more than I'd have liked.

I have sat in one of those before, they seem really nice. Very expensive though, the one I saw was $140k at the dealer. $14,500 extra for optional paint colors too

They come in some really strange colors too.

I keep telling my friend that owns it that it is the BMW for rednecks with $$$$.

This really gets him mad LOL.

IDK, but I'm betting it doesn't take turns all that fast...

Just wait a couple years. They will be in the used car lots for the price of a decent bicycle.

Yep. Greg Norman's Vinyard gave it away in a sweepstakes aroun a year ago. I drove it 51 weeks & sold it. Spousal unit loved it but was afraid to drive it & I'm not much of an SUV type & it was a redundant vehicle. If you want to see photos of yours truly taking delivery google something along the lines of "James Thomas Greg Norman Range Rover"

The sport is still a current model so I imagine it will take a while for them to get really cheap. I bet the 2003-2006 l322s will get way cheaper soon since a new model comes out this year so they aren't going to look new anymore.

Based on thread title alone, I thought this was going to be a thread on turbodiesel pickups.
