I felt the same way my first two weeks, only I was afraid that the dealer I bought it from was going to tell me they couldn't get me done, I had to bring it back. well it's been 4 weeks and it's all mine! I went from a ranger to a freakin xjr! I'm lovin it! this is probably the wrong area for this but who cares, I just love the car.

Everyone thanks for the postive comments, its good to know I was not the only one.
macchiavelli: I have a auto transmision they didnt have a manual on the lot, given that it would be a pain for me because i stay in 2nd gear mostly.
racerx82: A beemer? really? why? a friend of mine has a 00' or an 01' M3, when he finaly let me drive it I was spoiled and will never buy a bwm unless its a M3.
mr_lanceo: I am still waiting for my financing to go through, i still havent heard anything yet... I hope thats a good sign? :(
michaelnv: Is it really supposed to be higher? if so i will go get it checked out. My Mazda MX-3 is only getting 18mpg's and its smaller and lighter but needed a tune up (i am going to do it this spring).
04XTYPE: I only touch a freeway once on the weekends all city driving for me!!! :(
Smidgy: congrats on the bling bling car, i know what ya mean i go home and sit in my driveway for a half hour after work just playing with my X
bigdreams05: There are alot of Haters everywhere i was already hated on at work for pulling the receptionist before she quit now their hating for the car. as a great man said "Cant we all just get along?"
BuckMR2: thanks buck, i feel safe in my AWD than in my Jeep wrangler 4x4

JimC4: Thats why its good to have forums, for people to complain relate and share.

by the way anyone know what to do with the original "Jaguar" cell phone it came with. I keep it conneted in my car as a conversation peace.

As for pimpage with my new X-type, it will be put to the test this weekend. I am going on a second date friday, first with the jaguar, and we will see if a can "break in" my car. (wow i have no class, sorry). And this saturday is guys night out at the clubs after the St. pat's day bars!!! (I volunteered to by the designated drive this saturday, just to show off my 2002 X)

Designated Driver? Are you crazy man? How you gonna throw a bunch of smelly, drunk people in the X? They might throw up in the Jag and leave it smelling like barf for weeks! You can be a DD, but use someone elses car and gas!!!

I agree.. Nasty drunk people in the X??!! Hell no. Use someone else's car or get drunk up yourself and take a cab. You don't want your baby to get funk-dified.
