Jaguar XJ Portfolio borrowing Shinka's color

http://car-reviews.automobile.com/Ja...preview/1145/1
Quite a coincidence since Ford owns Jaguar too . I have always been a Jaguar fan so I am liking this top of the line XJ. This cherry color is the only color available apprently.

haha, shigginsrx8 has an XJR now, i'll tell him you said so :p
It's a pretty sweet ride. For a executive commuter type ride, it doesn't get much better. So stylish.

My brother is seriously considering the R Type, it's a great car if you can't quite or don't want to swing an M5. But it wouldn't be my choice of a car in that segment.

The S-Type R, I think he's going to end up with another Audi though.

My dad drove the XJ-8 Vanden Plas for a while, I loved it. Now he's got and XKR and I haven't been able to drive it, but it's a pretty sweet ride. TrueMagellen, I don't think my dad is a turd :p

Well for that draco you could get the Super V8--its basically a Vandan Plas with the supercharged V8 from the shorter XJR. I love em, I would probably get one over a S55 and M5 because it is more stylish and you see less of them on the road. My folks were Jag people when I was growing up--they use to have an XJ6 and an XJS V12 Coupe back in the 80s--back when they were super maintanence monsters. If I won the lottery I'd keep my 8, get an XJR, a Yukon Denali, and a 911 S Convertible.
