Default Newbie Intro

Hey guys, my name is Justin. I live in South Florida and I might be getting into a 10'+ XKR in the coming months.

I'm not a newb when it comes to cars, I have a 99' Lexus GS300 that's turbocharged and put down 715whp and I have a 08' BMW 535i which Im DD'ing now.

Im not new to forums, Im a active member on Bimmerforums, ClubLexus, and MBWorld (Almost got a E550).

I've always had a soft spot for the newer XK's and lately I've been wanting a 2+2 GT car and I didnt think of anything other than a XK so here I am now.

Im looking at XKR's right now but I'm not going to make a move most likely until early 2013, thats if I dont come across one for the right price.

If you guys have any suggestions or anything to look for with these cars feel free to comment.

TIA, Justin

Here's the Bimmer. Nothing special. Bone stock but fast lol.

Heres a pic of the bay

Welcome to the forum Justin,

Bimmer looks great - grass needs cutting.

Follow Norri's link to the XK8/XKR section for advice and information on the pre-2006 models or this one XK / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum for the current series.

Enjoy the search and the forum.

Graham

Thanks for the Welcome's guys, I checked out the Lower Atlantics. If I do end up with a XK I might try to organize a South Florida Jag meet like I did with ClubLexus.
