On Monday while at my doctor she complemented my 03 STR as a "nice Bentley." She was clearly confusing for the current era, modern design Bentley Contental series due to its overall look, split headlights, and mesh grill.

And although I don't go to nightclubs much these days, I went to one of the hot West Palm Beach nightclubs a few weeks ago and valet parked it up front with the "who's who" heavy hitters of the VIP car world along side an SL AMG Blackseries, and your garden variety Lambos, Ferraris, and Bentleys. Our STRs have unarguably maintained a modern look and have aged well!

 

Thank you for eloquently putting in to words my exact sentiment and similar experience. Bravo!

 

They are indeed still great bang-for-the-buck vehicles. I hope we can keep ours for many years to come....

 

Always loved that design - here's a pic of my first love, an XK-150S (long gone by pre-nuptial agreement), and my current love.

 

That's a pretty color for an STR!! I think it's Zircon?

Yep, Jaguar Zircon blue.

 

Jags have the knack of doing classic , timeless , elegance .....

 

S-Type R's are def still baller-status...especially black ones. I get looks EVERY time I drive my car. I'm so glad I didn't buy a new G37S like I was going to...everyone and their brother has one -- and they are still just a Nissan.

 

classic and timeless elegance ive also had mine mistaken for continentals plenty of times. i know its a compliment but since i am not a big continental fan (i prefer the bigger arnage's and azure's) i kind of dislike the compliment lol i still take it with a smile though!

 

That 150S is a beautiful car - the best in that line of development in my opinion.


Gimme gimme gimme !!!

 

I also forgot to add that a few days ago my friend (also a car nut) was outside my house leaving and my neighbor whom I have never spoke to that drives a modded AMG CLS55 stopped and asked my friend about my car. He told my friend he loves the look of it and was asking about what mods were done to the engine.

 

Hi,
Here's my humble 2.5 in Zircon Blue.......but it has a STR number plate!!!!
