Found a video of one in the color I ordered revving...sounds good. F-Type R Coupe in a SUV body.

DISCUSSION (17)

So when do I get to drive it?

I want to know why you chose grey, as this is the craziest Range Rover I'd opt for a much more showty color.

Amazing buy nonetheless, I'm eager to see it on Oppo.

Despite my choice of cars I'm actually very introverted and subtle personally. I let the cars do the shouting :D It's a little more stealth too, all of the trim, lettering, etc. is blacked out from the factory. I was going to go for the Estoril Blue but a few pictures I saw in certain lights it was almost pastel blue, like an easter egg.

Just sold the i8 to make room in the garage for the SVR.

Oh wow, you're getting yours in May? Our dealership already recieved and delivered our SVR.

Kinja'd!!!

The exhaust is a bit more grunty and brutal, compared to the crackly and poppy F-Type. It drives the same as a RR Sport, but is louder on the inside, even in quiet mode.

Protip: Make sure the dealership buffs out the black plastic pillars. They get scratched like hell in delivery. And be careful with them. Always use a lubricant if you need to wipe them off (spray wax is what I use).

Is the "Land Rover" badge on the front still green? I thought I remember my '12 RRS Supercharged badge being silver/grey.

Yeah, I didn't get it either. It sticks out quite a bit, since everything else is blacked out.

Kinja'd!!!

Weird. I just looked up photos of two SVRs delivered on Rangerovers.net ame they had black badges on the grille. Looks like one made it through QC without someone noticing.

So currently you have every one of those except the i8?

Nah, the blue tab over a car means it's a previous car. So five at this point.

Hah, so it's a one of one? I may actually mention it to the salesman later in the week. That's something the owner may want to know about/have fixed.

I get it perfectly, it'll be like a Q-ship Rangie.

Also I realized, that was be the reason you didn't opt for a bright green FieSTa or other funky colored one?

Let me know what happens.

Fellow gunmetal grey lover. I prefer to spec all my high performance cars that way. Understated color and best of all, still looks good when dirty or dusty
