Happy Mothers Day

My husband took me to trade in my '96 Mustang GT convertible.The XK is truly an amazing piece of machinery in comparison...so quiet--even with the top down compared to the old car (she purrs not growls), and she wants to run fast. The feature that limits acceleration may be something folks really do want to use, you can be doing 70 and feel like it's a Sunday drive at 40; top storage takes up some trunk space, though, so order Fresh Direct if it's an option. The backseat is small, though bigger than the Mustang. The screen is almost unreadable in bright sun, but the cellphone docking features are amazing. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to me!! It's that much fun!

Have had the car for 1 month. Flawless fit, finish and materials. Really like the extra luxury option with leather covering just about everything. Upgraded stereo with satellite radio is great also. All switches and controls are high quality. It is fun to drive but comfortable to drive all day. Incredibly quiet with top up at highway speeds. With tax and extended warranty it is just over $100K but it is a bargain compared to new Bentley or Aston Martin convertibles. It totally outclasses Mercedes and BMW.

I've only had this car for a week, but I just don't want to get out of it. Gorgeous, gorgeous styling - a real head turner. Amazing performance (I'm used to driving 'R' Jags - but you just don't need to R in this model) and responsiveness. Really smooth acceleration - and that growl when you floor it! Wow! I love this car.

Incomparable, stunning exterior. Sleek, clean and simple design that is beautiful, yet looks utilitarian. Turns heads and leaves em speechless. Very quick, ultra smooth and fast transmission, awesome brakes, quiet, comfortable, great suspension and cornering, neat and clean instrument panel, incredibly easy to use touch screen and luxurious appointments. Everything fits and looks right. Exceptional quality. A joy to drive. Exceptional in every respect.

Jaguar has done it! The attention to detail is amazing; even the turn signal sounds like a grandfather clock ticking. I have never enjoyed driving a vehicle as much as this one.
