Default 2014 XFR-S

Hi Guys,

My name is Sean and I recently purchased a 2014 Jaguar XFR-S in Polaris White. It has been one of my dream cars since I saw the Ad they made with MotorTrend back in 2013. I should talk about what brought me here though I guess.

I also have a 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca that is my dream car and I was fortunate enough to buy it when I was 24. The car was simply amazing. It sounded beastly and had power for days (7500 red line I believe) handled with all the gracefulness of a car you would expect with the name of one of the most famous race tracks in the US, it stopped on a dime and just begged you to drive it harder and when you did it just simply rewarded you. Unfortunately for me though, the engine blew shortly after due to oil starvation issues so I pulled it out and started rebuilding the engine. I did the full Heads, Cams, Intake Exhaust gambit and turned the car into a 9000RPM capable All Motor monster that made over 600 to the tires on its race tune. It was also the highest HP All Motor Coyote in the country. I met a girl and as things do when that happens we have gotten pretty serious so I did the proper thing and put the car up for sale to use for down payments on a house and retirement funds.

So, I was poking around for about 5 or 6 months when for whatever reason I started looking into the prices of the XFR-S and realized that I could make another dream car purchase and fulfill the everyday vehicle/ adult responsibilities obligation at the same time. So here I am I absolutely love the car! The only downside is what I have heard many reviewers say, in that for such a limited production car, you would think Jaguar would have been able to make the exhaust a bit louder than it is. In the future, though I will be looking for something to bring out the roar that the Jaguar (in my opinion) should have had from the factory.

Some pictures for you guys
