Where the heck did this come from? Geez, I miss everything.

Now, let`s quickly review:

1. Lambo doors are pure douche. Please don`t.
2. Spinners are so passé as to be ridiculous. Please don`t.

Everybody has the right to do what they wish with their property.....but you have to have a little pride, non? Have you seen who puts spinners and lambo doors on their cars? Reminds me of Pimp My Ride. Just awful.

 

Wow. It's nice to know yas will allow jaguar007 to breath a little. The pics he posted may very well be the STR he purchased but she was transferred to another auction house.

 

Ok gents, I have some good news and bad news for ya'll. I took a flight out today in the morning to houston to meet him and see the car so lets start with the bad first. Apparently there was some kind of miscommunication with my cousin whose a dealer out here in texas. Once I saw the STR at the airport it dind't look at all what he sent me. I was like you Fuaker why the hell you sent me the wrong pics, you made me look like a fool on jaguarforums. Of course I was upset, I really liked that blue color and had my hopes high. So to cut the story short, those pics that everyone saw with the blue and barcelona wheels were suppose to go to a potential client who too is looking for an STR but instead were sent to me, vice versa;and he didn't' realize that until I spoke to him late last nite about it. Now the good news......the STR that I own has no barcelonas, which I really don't care, and its midnight blue, looks like a mix btw black and blue, nice color tho. In all I was very pleased to be honest to know that there is not noticeable front end damage,, the body work was done great, there's just few scratches here and there and the interior is kept clean, ohh it has like a 2 tone to it, dove in color. It drove amazingly the feel of the S/C is amazing!!! I think I'll need to change the brake pads although, they felt a bit worn,but no worries.
I would like to thank those who have pointed the error out and I have no hard feelings toward you all. I think its a great deal that I got for it considering its a salvage title and I intend to drive it till the wheels fall off, ohh by the way the stock wheels are o.k, I'm still going to go with 20's ASanti's most likely later on.

God Bless, wish me a safe drive back down tomorrow. I took some pics of my actual STR here in Houston to share with you guys let me know what ya'll think.

 

Looks like you got the Brembos on there. That means you got an 05. Thats the best year. Kidding their all great years just kidding since thats my year. Cant see them too well since the pics are a little small so I could be wrong. Nice STR.

 

Jag007, might want to look at this before you head back home....
Drive safely...at least as one can do with a Jag...

LOLzzzzzzz...thats AWESOME! Dude I doubt I'll be driving that fast back down to Mississippi with the way my brakes are worn. I wish we had auto inflate option if ever that was to happen,hehehee
You know what I think this would come in handy if I was racing someone side by side and WhaMMmmm! Press of a button I win!
Later...

 

Thanks for the humble compliments , Sorry the pic wasn't large enough, I took a quick pic from my 3g iphone and it was starting to get dark. Vance whenever I press on the brakes at high speeds, the steering wheels shakes, I'm guessing my rotors are warped and pads need to be changed out, what years are the brembos available on the STRs? From my understanding I thought it was only the 03-04; and 05' only. I'm pretty sure I dont have the Brembos. Your video on rotor and pad change will definitely come in handy for my job this weekend

 

That's an 05 with Brembos, Congrats on your purchase treat her well.

'R's can be the preverial B***es if you don't take care of them..

No asanti 20's please I beg you lol.

look into a light wheel, like I suggested a FISKE, HRE, EURO-WORK I have a long list of lightweight good looking 3-piece wheels. In 20's

 

The easiest simplist way to tell if you have Brembos is if they say "JAGUAR R", if it only has the "R" then its a 06+. You are correct the Brembos were only on 03-05. That it the 05+ body so if you have Brembos then its an 05. If your steering wheel shakes its either warped rotors, bent hubs, or you have some pad material deposited on the rotor causing the shakes. I would give the rotors a really good cleaning put on some new pads if they are shot and if you still got the shakes you can either check the runout on the rotors and hubs as this will tell you which is not true. Then you can fix which ever is bent. I had the shakes on mine when I did that brake job in the video and it ended up being a rear rotor that was warped.

 

Did you take those pics your self? You got a hella of a deal since I saw the same car on Autotrader for sale a few months back. I think Alabama. Looks like the same pics from the sale ad.

 

Dude you are such a fake....

Well at least we know it is an 05 now. Are you looking at getting that one ByronAlpha? Its actually not too far from me. Its about halfway between me and Rick. That is actually a really nice R. I think its priced just a tad too high. I bet you could talk him down some.

Wow I dont even know what to say.
