Well the verdicts out. I will not be trading in the Disco for a RX8. I took it for a test drive and was not impressed by it. Not enough power or torque in it for me. Plus the check engine light was on, it had completely bald tires, one of the taillights had so much condensation in it that it looked like a swimming pool. Also things in the interior were broken and the exterior paint had too many blemishes.
I did get the revs up to 9 grand but it just didn’t do it for me. They seem like they could be cool cars but maybe this was a bad apple. Either way I’m on to different pastures. I gave them the word that if they can find me a 05 GTO 6.0 that they would have a buying customer… very plain looking but I love the performance.

For what its worth the Disco has depreciated immensely in the last year. Almost $10,000!!!!! WTF… I keep it looking and running brand new so they are willing to go above and beyond what they should. And with winter coming it will look nice on their front line. At least that’s what I will keep telling them.

 

You can buy a LR3 for $ 16,000 (05)
Thats why Disco's are down price so much that and gas.

 

I agre with discoxd... keep the Disco and get a cheaper sports car. I have had a 95 BMW M3 since 2002 and finally got the Discovery a few weeks back.

I considered selling the M3 but realized that I would never get what its worth to me. You may be in the same situation with your Disco (especially with still owing money on it)

The M3 is an awesome sports car and a great compliment to a Discovery. You can get one for probably half of the RX8,I am sure the case will be the same forother older sports cars.

In Cincinnati we get maybe 3-5 bad winter days which I look forward to driving the Disco on now. But as you know you cant beat having a sports car on nice sunny days.

 

i had an 06 nissan 350z before i got my disco (it got flooded in hurricane IKE, i had salt water up to the headrests) i loved that car, but there was no back seat and i travel a lot for work and have to bring quite a few large bags and things with me and i have my first child on the way, i was super bummed out that i lost my car, but now i have my rover and couldnt be happier...
