Thanks mate, you've got good taste as you guided me with the ordering back then in some ways encouraged me.

the XKR is a gorgeous car. What I love most though is the fact that it comes stock with those (yellow) B&W speakers throughout.

I don't think the "point" of the RS is to be elegant. Rather its a more sportier/ hardcore version of your car, MeanMachine.

Yes, I popped in at the local jagdealer yesterday to check out some Ranges and the new jaguars. The new xk-r looked really hot sitting there, and I didn't know it had B&W speakers! Way better than Bose, h/k and B&O

The new jaguar XF was just outside the shop, I walked by it first because I thought it was a Volvo S80. Then I noticed it was a little different, and then I saw how ugly it was! Wtf, Jaguar? The new design sucks in my opinion..

Agree, but it was over done in my book just look at the Vanquish vs Vanquish S. The S model still looked elegant and extremely deadly with subtle changes and power hike.

The XF honestly is a ugly car and the only Jaguar sedan that I would drive is the XJ, its a classy and vintage design that evolved nicely over the years. The XF is a mixture of volvo meets lexus, a bit of a S80 fused with the GS430.

Yes, that is a nice Jaguar! I saw a used one at the dealer for $20k and it looked very nice and wellkept! They really plunge in value after after a few years.
Exactly, the design is all messed up. But you're xk-r looks very very nice, great choice in color too
