How do you move on from an XKR?

THIS pushes all my buttons. Classic style, understated elegance, wood and leather, V12 Volante, and super low miles.

It was like that with the E-type, only it was world wide, with two other huge factors, in performance it blew the doors off everything else on the road- even the SL, so it was a no-comprise car. And it was a descendant of Jaguars that were winning back-to-back race victories at the time. In my opinion, the only other car that had similar effect was the one you owned and sent me a picture of. Sans the global availability.

ggggrrrrrrrrrrrr..............
Yeah, that one is about the exact specs I'd want.
Now I will be pissed all day.
Thanks for keeping me informed though, I don't get into BaT often as they don't seem to have 'good' cars most of the time.

When was an Alfa not incredibly promising....and when was that promise ever worth the other heartaches.
I think people have less of a stomach these days for the grief that comes with an Alfa because you cant just take it to a gas station to be worked on, like you could in the old days and Tony would show some patriotic enthusiasm. Nowadays, Pedro wants as much as the dealership- no joke.
I can show you several 2 year old Alfas with 3000 miles for $20k- and this was one of the best car designs in the last few decades. 0-60 in 3,2sec, incredible sounds, handling to die for.

But this is good to hear. Lately I ‘ve been driving a few Lotus’ and 4Cs... And believe it or not, I’m leaning the 4c way.

Really? It looks like morning frost. I see a Virage Volante in the same color near my parents' house. Bitter chocolate interior. Looks stunning. I find there are too many (including mine) that are greys and black. Add a few silver metallics and that's 80% of all sold.

I think the white Aston posted has enough contrasting exterior bits and visual interest to pull off the white.
i admit I’m partial to the darker silver and gray colors Aston offers but that is a nice looking car in that color to my eye. I prefer darker interiors for functional reasons (showing dirt) but it looks nice there too.
