Supercharged one at the shop.

Sportshift cars are much harder to tune than the normal manual transmission cars.

Short buzz in front of the shop.

I am of the opinion that the Vantage S is likely one of the sweetest looking sports cars ATM.  Those lines are beatiful.

Thanks for the link

Heh, I remember the whole Ford purchase thing. They were going to make a quantum leap in Jag quality and triple sales.


 :rofl

Oh well, the lawyers and the bankers got paid.
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

 ford sold jag about 5 years ago. if it were a jag from the old days, it wouldn't have even been on the autobahn. it'd have broken down before getting there, lolol

I know, that jag in the video looks about 10 years old no? Anyway, if Mr Lyons didn't sign off on the design, is it really a jaguar? Gone are the days of hardwood burl, rigid cow hide, 120lbs of chrome and loose quality control tolerances. Jaguars don't look all that different from the rest of the cars on the road anymore. Jaguar design used to be art, now it's fashion. Just aint built with love no mo.

I forget who asked but it was another Mustang enthusiast.  He asked me to post a pic of the car.
