Nice, bummer you have to part with it. I would add alot more pictures to your add if she is as clean as you say.

As they say a picture is worth a thousand words.

Good luck on your auction!

That stinks you have to sell it, looks like a nice car. You'll miss it I bet. I agree with Rick, more pics for your listing. At least some pics of the interior.

A couple of spelling and grammar errors I'd correct...Also assuming what about I'm to say is true I'd mention that: Car drives straight and doesn't pull to either side...Transmission shifts smoothly without any funny noises...All buttons for everything works...Mention the condition of the brakes and tires...

Wheels, are stock, spelling and grammar is form a friend ill have to go in and redo it, because I don't have ebay account. And whats wrong with the 15k bid? Same car at dealerships goes for a whole lot more. Can't find it for this cheap.

Those are Zeus wheels the 2005 was updated and came with Vulcan wheels. Here is a web page showing most all of the Jaguar stock wheels. The Zeus came on 2003-2004 STR's. Vulcans on 2005-2007 STR's.

s type r jag, you know...ya may be better off keepin the cat cause ya need a 20+ mpg 400 hp car that'll also double as a chick magnet. Kidding aside (I'm not kidding), you wont find a nicer lookin beast that'll do 23 mpg at 65 mph, lazily cruise at 90 mph, and can effortlessly rocket well into the triple digits. Keep her bro...a Honda Civic will get boring after the first mile.

good luck with the sale, and remember guys...no price policing, asking price can be whatever a seller wants. And also, keep this thread more along the lines of 'tweaking the ad' and helping the OP sell it. This thread is in the stype area, if I feel its turning into a for sale ad...well, we've got an area for that, and I'll be forced to move it.

thanks for understanding.

I think thats a good price for the car. If you wouldn't pay 15k for that, keep on driving your 3.0 POS. Speaking of which, didnt someone sell a 3.0 here for almost 10 grand? I wouldn't pay 5 grand for that car with 100k miles on it.

I'd use caution when saying "Every option is on it...." Do you have the Jaguar Voice Module? What about the front windshield heater? What about Adaptive Cruise Control which I think was available in that year though not commonly installed?

You've got a seriously nice automobile. Don't get caught out trying to oversell it. I'd consider it but my wife would beat me to death with a wooden spoon.

Also, some photos of the inside should be there.

You need to keep it then buy a cheap motorcycle for school commuting. You are only going to school with a bookbag so you get a good bookbag and a cheap bike and you are set. This is what I did. Now I get 50mpg going to and from school and anywhere I drive I dont need my car. I needed a more economical way to get to school also since I had to move farther away and now my commute is a 40 min drive but selling my STR was my last resort and the motorcycle thing is working out great.
