Question 2010 RRS Supercharge or 2010 BMW X6

I'm considering these two SUV's for our FX45 lease replacement. Have you guys seen the performance of the new 2010 Range Rover sport supercharged?

Would like to receive some feedback and opinions of these two choices. My only concern with RR is the history of reliability. THX guys

i'm dealing with the same dilemma. I went to test drive the other day regular RR Sport. I was impressed with low end torque, both engines (standard and supercharged) got significant increase in hp's. the new look is growing on me. interior is well refined, navi is good and the partial digital gauges are equally impressive. one of my major complaints is that the official Land Rover Range Rover USA website is outdated. they are still showing '09 models, when you go to select/build options. dealers are scheduled to receive supercharged RR's at the end of Sept. in terms of complaints regarding the actual RR's, for every one complaint there are thousands satisfied RR drivers (at least that's what I was told). After doing more research I would go with RR over X5 - that's just me. my other dilemma is picking color - black or white??? what would you guys go with? here's the pic of the one i test drove.

I'd prefer a '10 RRS! Fast and classy. The X6 is only fast, and buttugly. Maybe a '10 Discovery as a more cheap (but still classy) option instead of a RRS. And what do you think about the new FX50?

VB26,
You're picture didn't show up on the site. Maybe something wrong with on my end. I'm also looking at either BLK or White. You're right, their website sucks.

AMG Powerrr,
I've had the FX45 for a while and I just want something different. Besides, I'm not a fan of the new redesign FX.

release date is unclear, I think '11. also ran across some numbers for X6 -serious power plant,,, it would give RRSS along with bunch of others a good thrashing. But for almost $90,000 not sure if I would want to buy an X6. I'm not looking to track my suv, just in search for a little umph

twin turbo 4.4 V8
555hp @5,750rpm
501 pound-feet
0-60 = 4.7sec

Actually the X6M is going to be in showrooms in Sept/Oct/Nov timeframe, this year. Might be earlier since our local BMW dealer just received their first X5 M this morning.
