    It's not as good as you would think. It feels heavy and not as fast as one would like.

    I can't bring myself to drive a Lexus (Even if it has the F badge on it).

    The Jaguar is a GT car so I'm not buying it to try to rival any type of supercar out there. Grand Tourers are built for long stretches of winding roads. I'm not expecting to turn fast laps on a race track.

    Look up the review Jeremy Clarkson did on it and your opinion might change on that

    550 Supercharged HP with the Jaguar with a exhaust note that can't be matched (with the exception of the Eagle Speedster). Nope... Speed isn't everything.

    Say it isn't soooo!
    I'm just jealous that you live in an area where you don't HAVE to have a truck it sounds like. Go for it.
    I just worry that you can't get parts for rare cars. I don't really have to worry about that - maybe only for the 240z I used to have... that was a fun car. I've worked 2 jobs for some 20 yrs and had no freebies like that - wifey won the man lottery Ha.
    Thanks for your service! I know how hard you guys work.(My house burned down 2 days before xmas when I was 18. 1st year in college right before finals. Trying to make up chemistry was a bear)

    A friend of mine had one for a few months. Numbers on a page sure look great, but get behind the wheel and it's a different story.

    I certainly can't afford it so no need to look for a review. I prefer to make up my on mind and go test drive it than listen to someone else. Opinions are like assholes everyones got one and they usually stink.
