I read Dan Neil every week in the WSJ. I can't recall him ever going so "nuts" over a car.
I wonder if the F Type will depreciate into my price range before I age out of sporty cars? It's going to be a near run thing.

BTW When I saw this car in dark colors, say red to black, I was not impressed. Then I saw it in silver. The contrast set up by the black tires and various dark openings makes it a "must have". So many lovely cars so little time.

Tar heel, I was wandering through the FT forum and saw your post. You have had many Jaguars...good on ya! Are you still connected? My F, the most recent of our 11, is a thrill--daily!
How was the XJC? We had several XJ's, and lusted after the C. A neighbor has one, embedded in his garage, since new, but he seems to have no interest in it, except for investment. They range, on the internet from 7-70k in asking price. Any idea what would be a good purch price, considering it hasn't been run -- at least in the years of our neighboring?
Tks,
Doc

Another homonym missed by Spellcheck, one of my pet peeves. Or, an individual wearing a carolina blue wife beater.
