Default Soon to be 1st time Jag owner (happy and sad)

Hi everyone, it both excites and saddens be to become a part of your esteemed group. I will be making a 3 hour drive tomorrow to pick up a 2010 XFR. (so excited!) Unfortunalty, that drive will be a one way trip for my 2010 Nissan 370z Roadster . My wife and I adore that car and have had so much fun in it over the last 3 years. I spent the last few days detailing it (clay bar, polish, wax, leather conditioning etc) sort of as a farewell. I HATE saying goodbye to cars...

If your going to get rid of a car you love, it had better be for a special car in return. Despite the ache in my stomach at the thought of giving up my Z, I am so excited to have what is honestly one of my dream cars!

I look forward to learning from and sharing with this group. Wish me luck tomorrow!

My situation was not quite parallel, but I traded my C-5 Corvette (23,000 miles on it) with a big smile on my face, and I wouldn't go back for anything.

It all depends on what makes you happy.
