New Petrol Head from Texas
Hello all,
I am Norman and I am from Houston, TX. I am very much a petrol head/gear head/car junkie or whatever you want to call it and I just purchased my first Jaguar. I've been messing around with cars for about 12 years and my current toy is my 1993 RX-7 with an all-motor LS1:
The car is very fun as it weights less than 3000lbs and makes 447rwhp.
My new daily driver that I just picked up is a 2009 Jaguar XF with the 4.2L v8. It is an absolute blast to drive and the engine sounds great!
I don't have any better pics of it yet since I only got to drive it for a couple of days before I dropped it off at the local Jaguar dealership to have the dash replaced due to the common bubbling up problem. Needless to say I am very in love with this car and it is an absolute joy to commute in. I ordered the Mina exhaust last night and I will probably do a couple of other subtle modifications once I have spent more time on here and learn more about the car.
I hope to learn a lot on here and maybe even find some local clubs and events to participate in.
-Norman.
