What color is you XK8? Mine is British Racing Green but all of the pictures that I've taken of the car, the car looks like it's black.

This one looks black to me. Most of my pictures end up looking pretty dark, but you can see some green to the highlights.

Looks like a great drive and the pictures look amazing, Dalen!

It's black but if you look at it in the sun there is a very slight dark green metallic flake to it

You have a dropdead gorgeous car! Very attractive color, but then again, if I had my way, I'd own one in just about every color with the exception of a couple.

That is such beautiful country to take a "drive" in. Thanks for the pics. I've added some to my select Jag pics.

If you enjoy driving great roads come do the Santa Monica Sports Car Clubs Citrus Blossom Rally this coming Saturday May 1st. They always have some great roads to drive on. Its a Time/Speed/Distance rally. Starts in Mission Hills. You can get the details at smscc.org. They have a beginners class. You just need a navigator and a watch. They also host a rally the first Friday night of the month. It's alot of fun, and they find some amazing roads to drive on.
