It...looks...GREAT, congratulations.

For your sake, I hope the offer of $14.5k was accepted. In any event, that car is hardly broken in. Enjoy!

Thanks! The lowest price they would go was $15,000. But i don't blame them, its a 1 owner and was always maintained at the dealership i bought it from. Also it looks brand new, i don't think anybody ever sat in the front or rear seats. Even the driver seat is in great condition!

Truth is i never liked green cars until this car. lol I was thinking about getting front and rear splash guards for it. Or do you think they would ruin the look of the car?

Not on an STR. I think they foul or some such as they're the only model where Jag don't allow them.

Have them on my car. One note, if you get them you should add some additional screws to hold them. I didn't and lost one to an autocross cone.

In my opinion it would ruin the look a bit. The STR has staggered wheels, looks nice from behind, those i believe would hide them a bit.

Sure, sorry I didn't have one from the rear. But at least you can see how
they hang straight down and are quite subtle.
