Ineos Grenadier is an alternative. I’m guessing your primary concern is status symbol, and for that it’s hard to beat the G wagen. Defender has the best ride between the 3 of them tho

Whats the use case? Hauling kids and commuting - just get a suburban or Yukon, more space, more reliable and less douche factor. Actual needs for 4x4 capabilities - would be looking at the grenadier or a 200 series Land Cruiser. Or work on bribing customs into letting you import a 300 series (have seen four of them state side in the last few weeks so maybe that’s a path?)

Yea but I don’t like the price lol

Do you actually plan to go off road? Or just drive around town?

Rover has more impressive off-road tech. G wagon is better looking.
Could always go with a Range Rover; best of both worlds

Depends on where you live and your driving habits/needs. I’ve had multiple Gs and RRs. The G is a better car, hands down. Unless your primary use case is commuting.

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?
