went for a test drive today, everything was good however I noticed a vibration when you take it out of park or when stopped at a light. it's fine in park or sport plus mode but soon as it goes in to drive or any other mode the RPM's drop to 550-600 and it kind of vibrates a bit. anyone else notice this? in park or sports plus the rpm's go up to 850-900 and it runs great. also it doesn't seem to shift great in sport plus when getting on the gas. the shifts lag and the RPM's stay at like 4-5k rpms. it was like the transmission was all over the place.

If your truly interested in ordering one, ask to try a different unit with same motor. There maybe something not quite right or if the other vehicle feels the same then I would say its normal & its then up to you if that's for you.

I could not even test drive one when I went looking in early Feb. I could put a deposit on one that was comming in but none of the three dealers I visited had one to test drive. One dealer had one that got damaged coming off the carrier that they let me sit in, but the battery was dead. I ended up getting a GV80, and I think I am happy I did.

Interesting that the car was damaged on the car carrier. This is why I would never buy a car up front that had to be shipped again from another dealer. Any time any car goes on and off a truck there is a chance for damage. No thanks.

I had a GV80 3.t as a loaner for a month. it is also a nice ride. I don't need the extra space so the GV70 was my choice but I think you will enjoy it. Crash tested by Tiger Woods after all..

Yes the GV80's are beautiful.-I'm sort of jealous . A little bigger than I need & more than I wanted to spend is why I ordered a GV70.

Could be the start/stop function for fuel economy, I never use mine, and until I found out that 's what it was I almost didn't buy my 3.5.

Anytime you drive your car there is a risk of damage. I shipped my Gv70 600 miles. Mint.
