your best super4x4
 
Since the launching of some powerful and sportive 4x4 vehicles.....and in the same way as the topic of your best supercar ever, i want to get your opinion about the best 4x4 for having some fun and some fast ride on a tarmac road or a race track, there you go a list of them

Merc G55 AMG
Merc M55 AMG
BMW X5 Le Mans
Porsche Cayenne Turbo
Lamborghini LM001-LM002
VW Phaeton TDI V10
Range Rover Overfinch

Due to the charisma of the lambo(the acceleration either LM should give great sensations, once the LM001 had the Countach engine, and the LM002 the firsts Diablo engines)...i get the lamborghini as my favourite "super4x4" whereas the G55 AMG gets the second place for me once it has exactly the same engine as the SL55 AMG, and some modifications of AMG in brakes, suspensions........

The X5 LeMans is by far the quickest car in that lineup...so it would have to be my choice.

its a tough call... I love the X5 and Cayenne cuz they're uber fast... but he Overfinch and the Lambo would be much better off-road... Either the Lambo, X5, or Cayenne would be my pick.

How does KUBANG sound?

When and if it will come out, I'd realy like too see it on the track against the Cayenne turbo.

It gives a good first impression once the shape is much more beautiful than the cayenne......the 4x4 will be lighter than the cayenne as well...see what happens with the engine, and the gearbox, differencial settings.....once for me the strong point of the cayenne is the gearbox, differential and suspension settings of it

BMW X5 LM is by far the fastest and has great off road capabilities and is one kickass sleeper

GEMBALLA GT700!!!

i know it isnt a choice.....but it would kill

how many of those are actually 4x4 though most (if not all) of them have AWD so they wouldn't really qualify. I'd bring out the HUMMER and pull all your asses out once you get stuck in 1/2" of mud.

But out of those I would pick the Range since I've seen them in action and they are insane on the Land Rover tracks, they go up the hills faster than the Discovery's and Defenders.

1 Mile per gallon...that "thing" won't even have enough fuel to get anywhere. and with another 4x4 to pull,... -100 mpg?

Cool things though

My vote goes to the NEW Overfinch 580S

hand built 5-litre BMW-based V8
380bhp, 376lb ft...doesn't sound like much, but adequate
0-60: 7.1 sec
Polished wood panels, hand stitched leather trim, and ???Aerodynamic body work??? on a boxy off roader.

17mpg! get it right!
that's better than an H2 and half those trucks thanks to a Turbo Diesel and it holds 42 Gallons of gas so it can get where it has to before running out of gas.
And the HUMMER H1 is a real 4x4 not some AWD hopped up station wagon. :wink:

the GT700 is much better than a X5 Le Mans..... :twisted:

I would be satisfied with a stock X5 4.8is..... :D

sergei_dekker85 08-08-2004 11:35 AM

Mine would be my alvatar.....hahaha..Nissan X-trail GT with the SR20VET coughing out 290BHP and 320NM of torque at 3200 RPMs...and the best thing is that its cheap.....

BADMIHAI 08-08-2004 11:41 AM

My choice is the G55 AMG. But then again I hate SUVs, so I would love a Hummer H1 instead. Of course, I would never buy a 4x4 (unless I lived in the mountains).

Vansquish 08-08-2004 11:42 AM

Actually...for my super 4x4 I think I want the Bugatti EB110SS
