Default Hi there!

Hi everyone! I am new to the forum and after lusting after the XK for the last several years I am going to bite the bullet I think and purchase a Certified Pre-owned 2013 XKR in Rhodium Silver Metallic! Never thought I would own a silver car and in fact wanted a white XKR but man when I saw that silver one I couldn't stop smiling!

I am leaving behind a gorgeous BMW 650i convertible in black sapphire. She has served me well but it's time to get the car of my dreams! At any rate now that I am about to pull the trigger I thought it only fitting that I join this forum and become a member and not a lurker! Hopefully I will be a legit owner this Saturday evening! Wish me luck on my purchase and I will post pictures and specs. when she is in my garage!

Can't wait to conversate and learn more about these beautiful cars with you all you current jag owners and experts who have lots of knowledge to share! Thanks!

Hi Everyone!

As posted and promised last week when I joined here is my new baby! I love her. She is sleek and fast and I am proud to be in the Jaguar family. She's a 2013 Certified Pre-owned XKR in Rhodium Silver Metallic!
