Solid driver with beautiful paint and interior. Minor imperfections (i.e. stone chip). No rust. Original California car. Engine and transmission smooth as designed. Tires good except one with a little more miles (purchased that way) No problems with overheating. Hoses and belts in good order. Air conditioning needs refresh (never worked since purchase) Window motors work as do wiper motor. Top is new and operates smoothly. No issues. Showroom classic appeal. Registration not complete for California buyers. Simply purchased,initial registration and garaged. Driven a few times on a temp day pass.THE MILEAGE LISTED MAY VERY WELL BE INCORRECT AS IT SOUNDS AND DRIVES WAY TOO NEW FOR A HIGH MILEAGE CAR. PURCHASED THE CAR AFTER A QUICK TEST DRIVE AND A TIRING AIRPLANE TRIP. MY GUESS IS THE MILEAGE CLUSTER WAS SWAPPED FOR ANOTHER ONE BECAUSE IT HAD LOW MILES. IF YOU WERE TO INSPECT THE CAR YOU MIGHT AGREE WITH THIS THEORY. THERE ARE NO RECORDS WITH THE CAR. TOP IN ITS ENTIRETY IS NEW, HAVE RECEIPT. MAY HAVE HAD WEAR ISSUES SITTING OUTSIDE FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. WILL PLAN TO ADD MORE PICTURES IN BRIGHTER CONDITIONS AS PRESENTLY THEY APPEAR DARK AND DO NOT DO THIS VEHICLE JUSTICE!!! Thanks for viewing.This is being sold AS IS condition. Can drive anywhere, very dependable.

Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway - the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
