:?:dunno:

They have been talking about this car for years and there was lots of anticipation when it finally got the go-ahead.

I might actually need to subscribe to some car magazines. :)

Plus rumatt and lemming were talking about the possibility of getting one.

It's cool looking. For the life of me I can't understand the lack of a V8.

It looks painfully dorky to me, kind of like when the Hummer H2 came out.

Right. I probably read about it then, and promptly forgot about it.

No v8 so far, but 6 spd manual is available!

Still dont understand a stick for a offroad car. Seems ripe for burning up your clutch if you rock crawl. Also they drive like poop so not sure why rowing gears would be fun.

Apparently the Sport S has greater towing capacity with the auto version.
