whats going on guys and girls of jaguarforums.com! My name is Anthony and im 21 years old and I own and operate a car dealership with my dad. My dad has owned this jag for about 5 years now and when he bought it, he bought it crashed for pretty cheap. since then he has put alot of hard work into getting the car what it is today. Im currently in the market for a car since i sold my IS300. Im looking into either a 350z, an rx8, or an 2005.5 - 06 a4 but what I really want is the xk8. I have always loved this car and being that my dad doesnt drive it around alot and it kinda collects dust that I would see if he would hand it down to me. he promised me that he would eventually give the car to me but when im "responsible" (and i am lol) so my father and I are still on the search for a car for me but its looking like the xk8 might be mine soon! but if not ill still be here because I like to learn new things about the her

The xk8 is a 97 with about 76k miles on the clock. My dads put some kind of lip kit on it, a roof spoiler and a trunk spoiler. he has also put 8000k H.I.D's low beams and fog lights.

and what you have all been waiting for, the PICS! because

One thing about me is that im a sucker for stance. Some people find it stupid and useless but i think its absolutely gorgeous. Here is the IS300 before i sold it. She was an unfinished project because i decided to sell her while I was saving for the rims but she was dropped on Tien Flex coilovers. Performance wise she had Megan Headers, Unorthodox cam gear, HKS carbon ti exhaust and a Joe Z intake with a K&N drop in filter








Thanks for looking and reading! all comments are welcome
