Default So long Subaru, hello Jaguar

Good Day All,
Good to meet all of you, this sounds like a pretty active forum! Hoping to get some good insight on Jaguars, as I'm fairly new to the scene.
About myself: I'm 26 years old and have been in the import business since late 2009, mostly from China. I always have loved imports. It's not that I DON'T like American cars, but I've always been attracted to something different. I was born and raised in Seattle (Kirkland, specifically).

Cars Wise- I've been driving a 2010 subaru outback sport since Dec. 2009 - Black and Charcoal two-tone paint, debadged, 19" matte black rims, diffuser/splitter package, 1" lift (NOTlowered), smoked out tail lights, matte black handles, and grill.

Now, I've got myself a 2014 Jaguar XF 3.0SC AWD. The car is black with dark tint (not sure what %), 20" black kalimnos rims, black package upgrade, among others I am still trying to figure out. It's got 50k miles, but I'm not too frequent of a driver, so hope to keep them low. I already LOVE the new car, the speed is amazing and the handling is noticeably better than my subaru. AWD is almost a necessity in the PNW.. I like the exhaust sound on the Jaguar, but was considering an upgrade just to see if it would make it any better. Was hoping to get some insight from some more experienced folks around here.

Either way, all of my friends are super impressed with the car. Most importantly, however, I am super impressed with the car. It's nice to have something that is not a bmw or mercedes, but still luxurious and fun to drive.

Ya know why all your friends are impressed, don't you, it's because you have a BLACK Jaguar, and they're the Very Prettiest ones!

You probably keep it clean too! That's Always impressive; to see Any clean black car, but especially a Jaguar!

I freely admit my bias.

Learn to use the search function for the X250/X260 forums and you can find a wealth of information on the marque and your particular model.
