Well I will give my feed back on my buying experience. I have two 2008 RRS's. I paid $67,000 including tax, tags and title, in the new york area with, rear dvd, luxury interior, satellite, running boards, and a few other insurance packages. I purchased the vehicles in April and received the buyer loyalty discount. Prior to owning RRS's I had a discovery. The main reason I bought the brand again was because of the service I received on my first vehicle. Both of my suv's have about five thousand miles on them.
 
Pros: My wife and I love the cars. The style simply sets them apart from other SUV's in the luxury class. The interior is wider than the discovery and very comfortable for an adult to sit in between. Also if you have kids the reason we did not get the RR was due to the difficulty of moving the car seats in and out of the vehicle. When we finally got the seats in it was also a tighter fit in the middle. It has the sport transmission used once, nice feature if you off road I guess. The car raises and lowers for access and off-roading respectively. Which I enjoy, the access part at least, I don't know if it will ever see real dirt... It has cool transmission features for different terrain conditions, admittedly not getting much use. The driver and passenger seats are very comfortable and recline nicely for long road trips. There are also very few blind spots while driving. The SUV has a very smooth ride. There is a refrigerator between the driver and passenger seats which is nice to keep things cool. Service, they come and pick the vehicle up, give you a loaner and bring it back. To me that is nearly priceless.
 
Cons: The first con is lack of space in the rear. There is significantly less room than we had in the Discovery. We have an extremely large dog which we now have difficulty travelling with when we try to bring luggage. The fridge does not cool anything down, if it is not cold going in, it is going to take hours to get cold. Soda in the fridge for three hours and it was slightly chilled. The fridge should also have a pull out liner so when you spill the kids milk in it you can take it out to clean! I-pod integration is a joke, basically a jack in the back seat you plug your I-pod into. This is in need of serious improvement. The I-pod does not integrate into the sound system so you still need to have access to it to change songs, etc.
 
OKS: Navigation system is ok, not the best I have used. Gas mileage is about 13-15 mpg average. The phone blue tooth integration is adequate though sometimes people have difficulty hearing me.
 
Problems: The only problem so far has been with the DVD player in one of the SUV's this was a problem when we bought the car. It needed to be replaced.
 
If I think of anything else I'll add it... Still highly recommend the car!

joec1347,
 
Where are you located? In the NY Tri-State area a friend of mine got a new luxury and satellite radio 2008 Range Rover Sport with an MSRP of $62,400 for under $53,000. I believe that a brand new none luxury 2008 Range Rover Sport with an MSRP of $60,700 was running well under $52,000.
 
I am a big fan of the Range Rover Sport. However, I don't know if it makes much sense to lease one especially when US Bank is anticipating the residual will be 36% and 35% after 12,000 miles per year and 36 and 39 months, respectively.
 
Best,
Matt

Thanks
Joe
