Newb Looking for +/-2005 XK8 Convertible?

![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hello all,
Have a '99 Chrysler Sebring Convertible with over 200,000 miles on her. Needing a bit of care now and then, and not quite looking very attractive any more. Miles have taken toll.
I have always loved Jaguars, never have had one. Lately found an XK8 while out and about and had to figure out what it was.
Have been trying to find out if someone 6'3" and 345lbs could be confortable in it? None on any of the local car lots and would really be disappointed to drive some odd several hundred miles to a dealer and not fit in one!
Thanks,
Gary
