This is my pride and joy. I am a seasoned jaguar Enthusiast. Blk/Blk, very nice condition. 77,777 miles as of today. Daily driver, well on nice days. VERY low miles for this car. Maintained by an expert mechnic, Mobil 1 synthetic oil changes evry 5000 miles or 6 months. It runs and drives super smooth with plenty of power and crisp, unnoticeable shifts. All mechanics and electronics work as they should.I have revamped the stereo for 2012. I left the factory radio in the dash, this is NOT the kind of car you want to butcher up. I wired in ALL ALPINE component speakers, utilizing the tweeter openeings in the doors, and replacing the fake cheap ALPINE speakers that come with these cars as a $1500 option (which this car has). I used an ALPINE MRX-V60 amplifier which puts out pure digital 60x4 watts TRUE RMS and 250W to the subs. Replaced the ailing subs with 6.5" Lanzar subs. it sounds like a home stereo. Instead of wring in the wothrless OEM head unit, I have a headphone aux jack coming out of the console, ready for your iPhone or ipod, pandora, XM, walkman (lol) or whatever your heart desires. Plug it in and enjoy crisp flawless sound. I think this will maximaize any drivers enjoyment, whether you listen to Mozart, Kenny G, or Katy Perry! lol.
This car also TURNS ALL HEADS with the 22" Ruf Racing silver wheels with a Machined face. I chose them because they appear OEM, classy and sexy. The 22' gives a sporty proportion unmatched by any. I alos took this one step further. To preserve factory ride quality, I used a 255/35-22 Continental tire. No cheapies here. The tire has the same sidewall height as a 20" fitment, so you get the awesome LOOK of 22 inch wheels with the ride quality of the factory wheel. Does not rub on turns. Occasionally scrubs on high speed bumps, nothing major.
This car is phenomenal hate to see her go. i am buying a 2010 Camaro and must sacrifice my beloved GiGi.
Any Questions, offers or appointment requests TEXT Lance at (305) 924-6444. Scammers will be cooked and eaten.

Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience throws you the keys to the museum
Thu, 16 Oct 2014As automotive journalists, we get to drive a lot of really cool, high-performance vehicles. It really is the single best thing about this job. However, our access to vehicles is generally limited to the newest offerings on the market. That means, much like the general public, we don't really get access to vintage iron.
Jaguar is trying to rectify that issue for journalist and enthusiast alike, with a new program called the Heritage Driving Experience. It allows British enthusiasts to pop into the brand's Warwickshire testing site, drop anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds ($160 to $480) and go for a spin in some of the brand's most legendary offerings. That includes the more typical classics, like the Mark 2 saloon and the E-Type sports car, but you can also pay for access to stunners like the XK150, XKSS and the race-spec D-Type. In addition to the classics, most of the tests include time in their modern successors. So an hour with the Mark II can be split with time in an XFR-S, while the E-Type is complemented by its spiritual successor, the F-Type.
Most of the events are limited to 30 or 60-minute sessions, although the brand does offer a half-day and full-day event. The former, the Jaguar Le Mans Experience, includes time in the C-Type, D-Type, XKSS and F-Type R. The full-day Grace and Pace Pack, meanwhile, gives you access to nine vehicles, covering a huge gamut. That means time in the C-, D- and E-Type, XK150, Mark II, XKR-S GT and F-Type R, among others. Not surprisingly, prices aren't listed for the half- and full-day pack. Much like Jag's finest cars, if you have to ask, you probably can't afford them.
The Jaguar E-Type Lightweight is back on the prowl after a few decades away
Sun, 17 Aug 2014Sometimes procrastination has its benefits. Jaguar originally planned to build a run of 18 E-Type Lightweights for racing in the '60s. However, it was only ever to complete 12 of them. It has taken all of the intervening decades to finally get back to the project and build the final run of new Lightweights. While Jag announced the plan recently, the first continuation model was unveiled during the Pebble Beach weekend.
Coming from Jaguar Land Rover's Special Operations unit, these cars are identical to the way they left the factory in the '60s. Jag is even using the same grade of aluminum for the bodies, and the cars are fully compliant for FIA historic racing. Power comes from an aluminum, 3.8-liter inline-six with about 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque routed through a four-speed manual gearbox. Who could guess that in 2014 someone could buy a brand new vehicle from a major manufacturer that comes with Weber carbs? Though, Lucas mechanical fuel injection is an option.
While they look old, these new E-types are also a wonder of modern technology. To get things just right, the company laser scanned an original car to create the new bodies. Check out the gallery from the unveiling to see this old cat on the prowl again.
2014 Jaguar F-Type, Project 7 Concept snarl in Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Jay Leno gets to drive a lot of nice cars, and the Jaguar F-Type V8 S he pilots in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is no exception. Eric Johnson, vice president of Jaguar Western Region brought the car to Leno's garage, which impresses the comedian with its 5.0-liter V8 that makes 495 horsepower, 460 pound-feet of torque and a muscle car-like roar.
But there's a surprise this episode: Leno secured a drive in the Project 7 Concept at Pebble Beach this year, and the experience was caught on video. Based on the F-Type, the Project 7 is a functional concept car that nods to Jaguar's seven wins at Le Mans and features bespoke styling cues, a special exhaust system and, perhaps most importantly, 50 more horsepower from the supercharged V8.
Watch the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage in the video below. You'll need a little over 23 minutes to see the whole thing.
