I did not drive this one but was told that it's very fast with the supercharger. Supposedly the new regular one is faster than last year's SC model, and of course the new SC one is faster still.

Front end is awful.

Not feeling it, and I'm a Rover guy.

I'd have to agree.
Not fond of the back end either.
And what's up with the gills?
I'll give it two thumbs down....but that's just me.

The outgoing one is quite beautiful for an SUV. This one, not so much.

my first impression is that it looks a bit like the Ford Edge/Explorer

The Ford is a little better looking.

Ditto.
Maybe in white...dunno.
Steering-mounted gear selector...trying to be different or purposeful?

N0!

Purposeful. It makes room for more cupholders.

First thoughts...Its a Ford..

Fuggly,

The old one was meatier.

I had an old RR and a Disco, I liked them both but their steel was more prone to rust than an old Toyota

Prefer the old one but it matches their new style, ala Evoque. The farther they get away from their off road roots the less interest I have. Give me a Defender 110 and I'll be a happy man.

No. There's a RR dealer next door to the studio, so I've been seeing quite a few lately. The daytime LEDs remind me of Dame Edna's glasses (the new Audis are also guilty) and the sweeping brightwork along the lower flanks make it look tubby and tail heavy. I'm not much of a new SUV guy, but one of my neighbors just brought home a black RR sport. Now that thing looks the business.

Ugly front. Non-descript side. Rear is the best part, kind like Jabba The Hut's rear was also his best side.

To me, those cars are the "go to" cars for people with the means that say, "I have money, I need to make that clear to anyone, I need to drive in poor conditions (maybe), and I could car less about reliability or depreciation". I think at one time they where pretty decent off road vehicles.:) Got back from Park City and saw plenty of them.

No steering-mounted gear selector

It's the round wheel flush on the center console

These things are the 911's of the SUV world.

I bet non-enthusiasts will even notice the difference.
