Thanks, man! You guys feel like meeting up for a beer sometime?

Than you. They are definitely a lot of fun. :-)

I'm always up for a beer, but am traveling most of this month. Will be back in time for the next Cars and Coffee though. It would be cool to get a group of XKs together there. I'll message you when I'm back in town.

What is bat info to negotiate a price. Where do I find it? How did you find the car to begin with?

Beauty!

count me in

Congrats on the real nice car fng!. I'd like to see the sunroof....

YES

Whenever I see a post like "I joined the club this past weekend!!" my first thought is someone had sex on an airplane...

Bring a Trailer is an online car auction site. The nice thing is that the comments for the auction were preserved, so I could see what other questions others had, any issues they noted, etc. and then leverage that when I reached out to the dealer who had it on consignment.

I found the car on one of the car listing aggregate sites first, and then I ran the VIN through the search engines to see if it was listed elsewhere previously for a lower price.

That same trick got me a stunning metallic flake dark blue 2011 XK as Plan B, for $6,000 under the dealership's price listed on their site since they'd had it listed elsewhere cheaper for a few days. I used Google cache to screencap the original price and negotiate down to that as the starting point. In the end, I went for the Radiant Red XKR and got it but I'd be happy with either.

Exactly my thought too when I first read it! I guess "dirty" minds think alike....or at least "dirty old men" which the wife would say describes me! :icon_drool:
