To much RSS. Love gadgets. But all those gadgets are better off in a RSS and a RR. LR makes now the same mistake a lot of other car companies made. The new RSS und RR and D4 look to much alike from the front. Give me a Free2 with reduktion and I buy that.Daniel

Doesn't look bad from what I can tell, but too much bling bling for me, prefer it more utilitarian looking. I like how it looked with the stealth disguise better!I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Looks to me that the D4 is what the 09MY D3 should have been. Makes the 09MY look even more of an odd ball half way house design cock-up. Still, the D4 seems much more co-ordinated to me. Soon as the credit crunch is over, I reckon they'll sell loads.

I agree with Crews Control, the 09MY just didn't seem to work even though it did grow on me. As soon as I saw D4 everything started to fit and work from the work go. Shame they chose to show it off in metallic brown!

I reckon if they put a black grille on it will appeal to those who don't want the shine and 'bling' of the RRS-type one.
Makes it look a bit more rugged.
Would also be interesting to see what it looks like with some off-road equipment attached - would a great plastic RAI and bashed silver sump guard clash with the concept of a 'premium' off-roader 2007 Porsche Boxster (987) 2.7

Valet button will be a lockout of functions and possibly alarm systems, possibly disarming the remote start, so you dont have to give me the chap your coded key to vacuum out the dog vomit.

or so the bloke doing the valet parking can't stuff up your seat position or radio station choice???
Oooh, CY, you're on to something there matey. I like it with the black grill! I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
