Well if it's under warranty it's covered.....as for maaco, I don't think they will be able to match the paint...the jag paint is a 3 step process with differnt paint texture....Maaco will only do the one step and may not have that deep gloss.....but I would ask for Maaco warranty if the paint don't match get your money back...

Whay is your bumper paint coming off?? You get hit?

It is like the gloss that is peeling from the paint or something. I have to look at it more closely. I don't know if the car i purchased was involved in a crash. The carfax report was clean.

I plan on making an appointment in the next 2 weeks or so.. There are some minor things i will have them look at along with the bumper issue....

My main concern is the intermittent tranny noise.....dammit

The one thing the dealer doesn't like is an intermitten problem. if it didn't trip a code bro, you're not going to get much help. Best bet run the **** out of it till she breaks hard.
But do it while it's under warranty...lol

No, i didn't get any extended warranty. i plan on trading her in for a new one or another awd vehicle in about 2 or 3 more years (when the warranty runs out) i was looking at the lexus G something with AWD....looks nice....but not as sleek as the X.....

i really like the X so I might just get a new one again 2 years....

we'll see..

Do you guys think the X is fast enough? I feel like it is somewhat slow compared to the other cars in its class such as the Saab 9-3, BMW 3 Series etc....

NO is the short answer Dunhill........I don't know about the 3.0 but the 2.5 is too sluggish for my liking an I can see where they're gonna get that much more for the 3.0............still lovin it thou.
Jags are meant to be cruisin anyway..............still would like more power though.

Slow and sluggish is a good description. However, i love the interior and styling. I was thinking about tinting the windows and finding some nice rims.

Well not sure about you guys, but my 3L is ok, I'm happy with it..she moves....but than again i spent almost 5K in engine work.....lol

As for warranty issuses jimbo, let me tell you, you're not too far off the mark...I had a monte carlo SS a few years back, bought brand new, warranty was 3 years/30K miles I **** you not, I hit 30,003 miles and she crapped out on the road dead. dealer would not touch it under warranty even though it was under 3 years but over the 30K miles....cost me 1K to fix it. i was pissed! paid for the repairs and traded her in that day for a Ford truck...lol
