Default Finally........

After months of searching and haggling, I finally bought my Jag! It's an 05 with 33k miles on it. Its a Select edition with a warranty through 08/11. The car's in mint mint shape in all aspects and feel lucky to have found it. Best part is I didn't have to spend more than 20k for it - I know! Look forward to edumacating myself via these forums (which I've perused for months before I bit the bullet) and enjoying this awesome car. I'd upload pics but since I'm a newbie I can't, right?

Default Love this car!!!

Thanks for welcome, guys! When I took delivery of the car, it was truly love at first sight then drive that I drove the entire 12-hour trip home with just stops for gas and Red Bull. This thing is an awesome touring car! A newer 535i tried to "hang" with me at this remote stretch of highway but peeled off at 120mph! Can't believe how fast this thing got there from 75mph...

Anyways, here's some pics I took of the beautiful beast after getting cleaned up at home....enjoy!

BY the way, any ideas how to remove the front license frame? I'm lucky enough to reside is a state where we don't need front plates. Looks like it's riveted?

WOW! What a Cat! Love the color and the wheels. I've just had my 03 Stype about two weeks and am almost sleeping in her! Even with the 3.0 v6 it nails me to seat back when I romp on her! Love these classy cars!
