Best SUV ever made. Wouldn't get one unless it's a 55 though, they sound phenomenal.

On my 6th G and love it but contrary to your belief they handle like crap. One of the only civilian vehicles left on the road with solid axles.

Really didn't know. Only test drove them and my Ex didn't like driving it at all ended up with a Range Rover Sport instead. Too bad I think they look great and are different then anything else on the road.

PCH, solid axles or not, I must disagree. Mine handles very well as did my 07 G55 4dr.

I agree the G55 is not a good choice if you just have one vehicle.........but its a good addition for someone wanting a more unique look in an SUV.
