Just got my 2010 XKR convertible and wanted to make connections.
Live in Whitby, Ontario Canada just outside Toronto .
Also need to know a good spot to buy OEM brake pads?

Welcome to the forum! I'm practically a neighbour, even closer when I go to our place in Pickering a couple of times a month. Loving my 2010 vert. We met a couple in Orillia with an '07 XKR last summer that live in Whitby...is that you with a '10 now by chance? What colour?

OEM pads from the dealer, but no idea if they're available elsewhere. You can search the forum for previous threads about brake pads, but I recall reading that after-market pads weren't available for both front and back on the MY10+ XKR.

If you want to explore the high speed/performance aspects of the car, the track is a great place to do it. Search for threads under my user name for lots of local track feedback.

Enjoy!

Bruce
