Bet you had a blast. Those cars are sex on wheels, I'm amazed at how quickly Jaguars' design crew has transformed the brand, the nicest designs out right now IMO.
Hopefully reliability won't fall off the table as I would like to put one on my wish list.
Oh, and as far as the rear camber arm restoring your poke, it will come out a bit but not like it was before. Might just keep an eye on the wear and if it's within an acceptable range to you then that's really all that matters, it may work out OK.

Next up is to test-drive a Cayman-S... although I've been to our local Porsche dealership before, and they are not nearly as nice as the staff at Jaguar. The Porsche staff each come with a broomstick deeply jammed up their dookey.
My thinking is that in about 6 years, I can swing a 3 year old F-Type S for around $35K to $40K... assuming they see that kind of rapid depreciation. Some cars do, some don't.

It does have me concerned, I'm not going to white-wash it. Those wide PSS run about $320/each, so I'd hate to rip them up in only a few thousand miles.
Got my emblem, according to the part number looks like I got a 2004-2007 version, it has two plastic nubs that I will have to break off. Now where was that rattle can..
Got my LED kit for my car. I installed everything with the exception of the glove box and the city lights. Going to have to spend some time on those. Probably gonna grab a cabin air filter to swap out while I'm in there.
Ordered the Tanabe Medalion Axle Back for my X the other day and installed it after work. I have to say these mufflers are absolutely beautiful, some amazing welds and construction going on here. The tips could be a little smaller, but the fitment works pretty good. First impressions driving the car around is this definitely made the OEM exhaust much deeper and more enjoyable, especially after 4000rpm! Absolutely no drone in the cabin under load on the highway. I hear it will get even better in 500 miles, but so far I'm very impressed and happy with my purchase.

Jesus H. Christ, easy easy easy until bleeding the new Akebonos. They are on and functioning. The hot S. Florida sun baked me from head to toe. The install took 4 hours. The bleeding of the brakes took another hour and a half. I'm happy once again, the mod bug has been satiated.

You know, I'm none too fond of that model VOSSEN wheel, however with the new calipers and rotors, I can't deny it. Looks very nice.
Thanks, Roc. I went with these Vossens because I couldn't get into the concave look. Your rims are actually the first concave rims that I like. Thanks for the compliment. I am glad I didn't go with drilled and slotted rotors. I think it would have been a little over the top.
