Since demand was still so high I was actually able to sell and make a little money on it so I dumped. Still love the looks of RR but the S550 is light years a head of the RR. I ended up leasing a GLK for my wife to solve the SUV need.
Interesting color combo. Are those wheels a factory option? 20's?

Chucky, would like to see pics of the red RR when she gets it.

The were a Autobiography no cost option and they were 22's. There have been some conversations on this site about road noise from tires but there is no comparison to the amount of noise those tires created. Going 75 mph you could not have a normal conversation in the RR. It was brutal

This is what it will look like. Black interior. We are importing upgraded door handles though off an Autobiography. Mom likes the look of those better.

As my father says - whatever her majesty wants.



We are putting on personalized side tread plates as a surprise.

OHH. Well That isn't my car. That's a LWB Firenze Red Supercharged one that was on a Range Rover Forum.

I'm from Brooklyn NY. We have roughly 3 inches of space between houses.
