Bert.......Thanks for the links to the videos. Lots of fun to watch. The XFR is a rocket.

David.......Love it!

I didn't get into Jacksonville today like I planned, so I did not drive the Audi S5. I feel a stronger allure towards the Jaguar for a number of reason. I like the four doors on the XF. The S5 is a two door model. I like the front and rear appearance of the XF better than the S5, particularly the grill. The interior on the Jaguar is so luxurious and tastefully appointed. Even without driving the S5, the Jaguar is more appealing to me.

The 2010 Jaguar XF has seriously captured my attention. I am considering putting one in the garage.

What a great car. I'd certainly buy one if I could afford it and prefer it over a BMW or Mercedes.

I have always loved the look of Jaguar . It reminds me a little of the BMW 5 series. If you sleep on it and you still want it then it is only a matter of time.... I predict you will have it by this weekend.

Two questions Dan?

1- What color car are you getting?

2- Will you add the B & W audio system?

Serge.......In recent years I have be completely turned off by BMW's lines. I don't find them visually exciting in the least. Quite the opposite, actually. I appreciate the suggestion, but would not own one.

I find the 550i with the sport package quite appealing as do many of my friends.
