Hello forum, I recently purchased a red xk8 convertible which we call drops with only 63k original miles, all black interior with a black top. I am a gm guy, i have never liked ford vehicles, but I have to admit i am very very impressed with the handling and performance of this vehicle, it handles turns at high speeds almost as nice as my hyabusa motorcycle
.. the only flaw i have with my car so far is everytime i start it up and go the 1st mile the asc code pops up and slows it down, i let it do that a few times then it stops and acts normal. I own my own car customizing business like "pimp my ride" & "west coast customs "on tv so I am definitly gonna spice this car up. A mesh grill, custom stereo system upgrade are already in the works. I like the fact i have to make my own fiberglass stereo housing because they do not offer one for this vehicle.. So now as much as I love gm & cadillacs, I can honestly say I am proud to own a Jaguar!!! I am 33 yrs old by the way, if that even matters lol. Have a blessed easter everyone..
