Talking 2010 XFR owner

Hello everyone.i just recently purchased a "new to me" 2010 red xfr. Came out of a Z06 Corvette. I have to say that even tho my Jag isnt the ***** to wall, hair on fire screamer my vette was, this is a very special car.

My wife loves it alot more than my vette. I ahve to say the fit andfinish and over comfort theres no comparison. I do sometimes miss the shear terror the vette would instill ( I had added a few mods to the vette that really brought an already crazy fast car to insanelyfast car), however the Jag XFR is no slouch andafter this weekend it should really come to life.

Adding a pully change and exhaust and a dyno tune. Told it should increase rwhp by maybe even as much as 60 hp. Regardless I'm excited to see the change.

Well anyways, I do really like this car a lot.

Welcome Todd, I also came here as a life long Corvette owner, now a 2010 XKR owner. You are correct in the fit and finish area, one thing Corvette never seemed to be able to get right. Does seem strange driving and not trying to figure out where that new rattle, pop, squeak is coming from. And with 510HP, well you can't help but smile! My wife also enjoys being in the Jag much more than the Vette, another big bonus, and as they say,"if Momma's happy, everybody is happy"
Enjoy that new ride!

Cant say my wife didnt enjoy the Vette, she giggle everytime I'd get on it a little, however she is just soooo much more comfotable and happier with the Jag, so when I get the mods done Im hoping I get the "giggle" factor along with a better quality car.
