Gift for the woman who cheats?
Funny the ad underneath the picture showed a picture of a woman that said "I cheat with men over 40". The implication for me was she would if one of them bought her this car. If that was your car what happened (looks almost identical to mine with the exception of the wheels).

My new baby: R Coupe |Stratus Grey | Blade Wheels.
There were a few deep scratches in the clearcoat from the shipping cover. I had a detailer machine polish the car, then put on 2 coats of CQuartz Finest. Stratus is a difficult color to capture. The car actally seems to photograph better now. Prior pictures showed nothing but very bright reflections, which made the grey appear black in the exposure.
These shots actually look very close to what you see with the naked eye for Stratus Grey.

Ohh, I love the real pics of Italian red I've seen! It looks great with the pano roof too. I also love the Sapphire blue pics I've seen. I can't wait to see that color in person. If I could've picked all three colors I would have

Metalic Purple
My wife's car (F-Type S) has been wrapped in metallic Purple 2 layer process which gives it a paint like look (28th Anniversary Present). Purple color layer under a layer of clear. This should also protect the car better as it has been a rock magnet of late. I'll post process shots of the car later in the forum after I get them. To do this the car is torn apart much like you'd do for a repaint and then reassembled. Note the carbon fiber accents. Oh and if you wonder about the R badging that is to mess with folks who bought the coupe. Just because...
Oh and the chrome grill has been wrapped to make it look like the black pack. You can't get the damn black grill and this should hold up much better than painting the plastic (which is what dealers are doing).
We are now working on my Anniversary present...

Thanks! I see have one on order. You definitely won't be disappointed. This car is so sick. NEVER thought I would own a Jag, but alas...
Previous cars:
2009 M3 Coupe

2014 Nissan GT-R
This one is my favorite by far. I've had it for a little over 2 months and absolutely love it! It gets a ton of looks. Most people mistake it for a Maserati though. Some guy at a gas station actually said "nice Maserati, that must be really expensive." They're not expecting this to be a Jaguar.
