Picked up the car today. I am thrilled with the azurite blue, london tan color combination. Also love the satin elm wood trim. No noticeable changes from 2011. Early reports on 2012 said that Jaguar was making a smaller key fob. Unfortunately that hasn't happened. It's the same size as the 2011's. Car is solid and quiet. No roof noise, or any other squeaks or rattles.
Bottom line for me: This car has it all. Best combination of performance and handling, luxury, and beautiful design.

How long did it take for you to get your car after you ordered it?

I know people have complained about the interface here, but it doesn't detract from the driving experience at all (unlike the iDrive). Plus, the sound system is absolutely one of the best I've experienced. I just turn up the volume, kick in the supercharger, and, if there are any minor annoyances, they just melt away.

There is a "heartbeat" lag in the response of the unit. Once I realized that, and expect it, it isn't an issue for me at all. I'm getting used to the menu structure, and it's not hard to become efficient with working through the system. It's not quite as easy to use as Audi's MMI, but it's better than my 2011 Porsche Cayenne, and much better than the BMW iDrive.

My dealer has installed leapers on several XJ's and XF's. Said XJs looks great, but the slope of the hood on the XF is a problem. I'll post pictures.

BTW, my dealer wants around $1,000 for the Leaper and installation.

Wow, great deal, and sounds about right. I questioned the $1,000 quote, dealer said the Leaper part is around $400, the remainder was for labor. He said that it wasn't just a simple operation of drilling a couple of holes, but that the entire hood needs to be removed to do the install correctly (alignment, bracing).

It's a darker, richer shade to me. In addition, it looks black in certain light. I really like that!

Never saw the combo but it's a great great color. Congrats. In fact, congrats to all. We all have beauties.
I was just in LA for about a week and saw two black ones the whole time. All Mercedes for the ladies and Beemers for the dreamers. We are a lucky minority with exceptionally fine taste.
