QuoteR33, are you going to get the RR sport?
Well they have my deposit, I want to put my hands on it first and drop the rear in the seat.  I really like everything they've put out on it so far and it's a stunning vehicle to me.  If for some reason I don't like it I'll just have to pony up a few more dollars for the RR.
isn't the RR about $20k more than the Sport?

I see many many S500's where I live, and actually many more 500's than 430's.

I justed watched a Top Gear, and they had a thing on the RR Sport, and they said it was really great, but they would probably get the real RR for odd reasons. The RR Sport seemed good enough.

QuoteGeez...thinking of that S430 being a stiff tourer type car is mind boggling...the thing looks huge and heavy.  Does it actually handle pretty well when the air suspension is adjusted?  What's the ride like with it on regular...smooth as silk?
It's got sports car brakes and does handle very well.  It's trackable.

I'll put it this way, the V-12 S600 with ABC pulled a .89 on the skidpad.  Quite impressive when you think about it.

I would like to see this episode, even though these guys are full of hogwash much of the time.  Guess I'll google for it.
