I'm not keen on it but perhaps it will look better in steel grey.

looks like the big brother of the Evoque, but i think i'll like this. I like RR's new design school.. whatever that is..

engines are a different prob though.. so is handling..

I think the RRS is going to have a DPC torque distribution system like the X6. I'd be massively surprised if the handling isn't significantly better than the outgoing model.

Well, it's now 'officially' out and, having seen more photos, I really, really like it.  I think it looks great.
