Every tech there even said they're the worst things on the road. One of my best friends has an '03 Range Rover and so far he's had to put over $10,000 into repairs from 05-now (and no, it's not just his that's like that). STAY AWAY!

lol i cant say the same for my pop's discovery, only problems its had since '01 are the brakes needing to be replaced and a radiator hose leak...then again i kinda treat it like crap.

edit: i regret not saving up since a young kid so id have tons of money to mod as soon as i got this car..

I regret not saving up and buying an SC in high school. I could've easily had one but I bought HDTV's, computers, anime, stereos, and tons of video games instead. I also ended up having to drive my mom's Saturn which totally killed my "coolness factor" my senior year of high school and my first year of college.

I really wish I had my SC back then. My friend got a super clean one right before junior year and I wanted one since then. My college is a commuter college, so everyone has a car since we don't have any real public transportation.

yeah its definetly a treat in HS to have had an SC. everyone loved it. my little brother's friends knew me as the kid with the nice car haha since i would pick him up everywhere with it. i took my gf to prom in it, had it valet parked right in front of the nicest hotel in boston, looked right parked there. !

sophomore year in school allows cars, so my SC is preparing to dominate yet another campus

I rarely drove my SC to school this past semester since people get in accidents quite often in the school parking lot. My SC has attracted a ton of attention in the 5 months that I've had it. Even my parents want to buy it from me. This fall however, will be another story once I get some wheels and drop it.
