This is my 1990 Jaguar XJ6 Sovereign. I straight up traded my V6 Mustang for it in October... I have absolutely no regrets. That car was fun yet a piss off, and in the end it was just a constant maintenance whore.

The XJ6 has a 4.0L I-6 rated at 223hp/278ft-lbs, approx 4100lbs, euro headlights, chrome everywhere, wood grain and grey interior, self-leveling suspension, J-shifter, sport mode, front heated seats, passenger flip-out trays, blacked out taillights (OEM), dual exhaust, etc.

It needs new front signals, new passenger side taillight (cracked w/ moisture buildup), hood alignment, leaping jaguar, driver side pinstriping, front end bumper valance (or whatever you want to call it) work (it hangs down), wheel alignment, some other minor stuff, and a really good general car cleaning and cut polish.

;D This feels way more solid than the mustang and handles just as well. I still want to get another mustang though... ;)

I like the fact that its different....wont see many enthusiasts driving that car around here, especially a young fella (Im assuming youre young based on prev posts about UC fri nights).

Same reason i always loved novas........not many around here locally. I had to have one.

Can wait to see 'your Jag' transform into what you want it to be.....or are plans to keep it the way it is (stock?).

Heh. Nova's are awesome cars. Definitely one of my favourite muscle cars.

Yeah, I'm the youngest on here that I know of. I'm 17. I'll keep the Jag fairly stock.. I might do a conversion on the rear suspension, but we'll see how it is. If it's fine I won't touch it. The only 'plan' is tint and rims, and that might not even be this year. I haven't found much in terms of performance modifications but if anything probably a chip.

This is going to be my daily driver so I have to spend money wisely because I have to have my Fiat roadworthy this year. :P

Hahaha... thanks again. I have a shaggy look most of the time so I really don't look right in it. I've also delivered pizza in it before... :ras:
