I like it, but seeing as off-roading ability's been reduced to nothing, wouldn't it just make more sense to buy a saloon?:rolleyes:

I know this is going to make me look bad because it goes against everything I believe in but if I was forced to drive an SUV or truck I'd have to lower it simply for my sanity. This is ok but like motorcycles there's no way in hell I'd get one.
somehow it looks ricey in silver and great in black.
That's because black is always the best color. ;)
BTW, I'm not black if your wondering.

I like the design, but the design has taken the offroad capabilities away completely. But who cares!!! We can always use Evos and WRXs for offroad!!! :D

Arden Range Rover Sport AR6
Even More Power for the Range Rover Sport
Elegance, discreet sportiness and understatement have always been the distinguishing features of English cars. Thirty years ago, the tuning specialist, Arden from Krefeld, couldn’t resist the appeal of these vehicles. For years, he has been the place to go for customers who wish for more emphasis on the typical characteristics, as well as a customization of their Jaguar or Range Rover. Arden also gives the current Range Rover Sport comprehensive modifications. From the aerodynamic-kit to the performance increase and right up to the enhanced interior, Arden offers an attractive SUV with the “Range Rover AR6 Stronger“, which is classed “over the top” simply through its performance.
More Power
Arden draws no less than 520 bhp out of the supercharged V8, whose displacement has been increased to 4.8 liters. Together with the increased torque of 502 lb-ft at 3600 rpm, this provides the superior driving performance of the not particularly light Range Rover Sport. The sheer force catapults the British SUV from zero to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
Well-Balanced Appearance
The performance of the AR6 is believable just when it stands in front of you with its bodywork kit manufactured with accustomed Arden quality. The front and rear spoilers fit superbly with the basic design of the Range Rover. Arden designs them so that they will still look modern years from now, making a resale of the vehicle more attractive. They also give the vehicle a massive appearance without losing well-balanced proportions.
The rear spoiler, the component probably most seen by road users, features openings to the left and right for the tailpipes of the Arden stainless steel exhaust system. In addition the rear spoiler gleams with its diffuser look.
What would tuning be without new wheels? Arden banks on his own 10x22 inch creation. Arden fits 295/30 R22 tires to the elegant, 10-spoked, light alloy wheels which provides not only a sporty look but also adequate traction. In addition, the “airy” look allows a glimpse of the powerful brakes. Arden adapts these to the increased performance. The high-performance system features 6-piston fixed calipers at the front and 4-piston fixed calipers at the rear.
Strong Sound and a Chassis for All Events
When it comes to the sound, the Arden Range Rover Sport AR6 Stronger abandons its British reserved nature. Arden informs the public about the increased performance of the modified Range with a full sound. The Arden engineers have created an exhaust system with a sport catalytic converter. Besides the much better sound in comparison to the standard system, the high-performance system also has a “big end”. Or rather four – because two twin tailpipes show observers that even without the motor running something special has been fitted under the Range.
The Arden AR6 Stronger chassis comes with an electronic air suspension system that provides optimum tuning at all times and in every situation. The electronic module offers two further driver programs in addition to the standard settings. The AR6 Stronger can be lowered by 1 inch to improve the handling and to lower the centre of gravity. The sport tuning endows the heavy SUV with decidedly better road holding.
Should the ”show-piece” need to be maneuvered over bad roads or country lanes, then the vehicle can be raised 1 inch using the off-road setting. The gain in ground clearance should mean that there are no more obstacles worth mentioning.
Every Customer Wish Fulfilled
Arden enhances the interior with various elements because customers predominantly see their Arden Range Rover Sport from the inside. All interior work is carried out in Arden’s own saddlery. Customer requests are manufactured with the highest precision and attention to detail. Every request – no matter how extraordinary – is a welcome challenge.
