Back in my 2011 XF, Central VA

Hello to all!

I'm not a new owner, but am basically new to the Jag being my primary car again.

Bought my 2011 XF Premium, Ultimate Black/Charcoal, Chrome Arturas, back in May '11 (dealer demo). Drove it for a year, then got the itch and bought an '07 E63 AMG in May '12 (phenomenal car, insane power, SOMEWHAT unassuming...) but the problem was, I could never successfully sell the Jaguar, depreciation just killed me.

So tomorrow I'm selling the E63 for about 4k less than I paid for it a year and 17k miles ago
(I guess the market is good for them), and it's back to the Jag lifestyle!

It still feels new, 22k miles, gonna give it a good buffing and waxing tomorrow, wipe down the leather, welcome her back to the road full time.

Realistically, i already miss the 507hp of the Mercedes, and I'll probably look more and more into paying down on the Jag until a good 2010 XKR becomes available and look to trade, I think I'm ready to move to a 2door again (last one was my 76 Trans Am! Tired of driving everyone else around!)

I got alot out of the MBWorld forum for the year I was there, and look forward to learning from members here and lending a hand whenever I can!
