One of my dream cars is for sale

I really have no intention of buying this car. I guess I have the money but it's not the right time to be buying something like this. Another part of me says, this is your only chance to own one so get it now!!! Eh I'm sure another one will pop up in the next 5 years. I still have to go check it out though.

Ok, i dont know ur financial situation, but u said u could afford it if ur really wanted it. Im here to tell u that U ABSOLUTELY SHOULD BUY THAT CAR. Life is short, and money is only worth what u spend it on. If u wont have to sell ur house or family members, then u need to buy that car. The car itself is one of a kind, but ive never even seen any replicas in person either. Buy the car, **** having money. Money is nice to have, but money isnt a 400hp Jaguar XJ13. buy it

I can get it if I finance it. I don't have the cash to buy it outright. Logic says let this one go. Checking it out could cause all logic to go out the window though.

Are u familiar with the TV series "Victory By Design" ? They review the one real XJ13 in it. It is one of the most epic cars Ive seen, and Ive seen alot of them. its a mid engine lemans spec E type. you know u want that in ur life. And, according to the Mayans and hollywood, were all going to die in 2012 anyway. so buy the car, and u wont regret it as the earth is falling apart

heres VBD with ur dream car. turn ur speakers up.

I don't see a price. How much is it? I say if you don't feel its the right time then don't buy it. Its not like the car is 1 of 1, there will be more.

yea, its just 1 of 6. Ur not going to see another one pass u on the street, ever. This is one of the few chances to own a car that is truly unique. u can have the nastiest supra or skyline in the world, hell u could even have an Enzo or a Veyron, but none of those are even as unique and exclusive as this XJ13 is. it is pretty much the premier classic Jag one could possibly own. and then he can say that he's got a Jaaaaag lol

Been kicking ass in business but only for about 3 months have I really been tearing it up. I don't think the car is worth over 100k. If its south of 80 grand I would have a real hard time passing on it. Spending money before I have it which seems like a bad idea but then again how many pay cash for a car.

I don't know how that market for this car is. The VBD series really brought them a lot of attention. That's where I first saw them myself.

This one is a replica but an exact replica made in aluminum. You can find them in fiberglass but that seems wrong. I'll check it out this weekend if I can. My girl seems cool about it. She has seen me drool over this car for awhile.

That thing is awesome. I personally would never spend that kind of money on one, but that's just me. I prefer newer cars to older ones no matter how rare or quick they are. If you can afford it, why wouldn't you get it if its your dream car? But maybe we just have two different out looks on the term "Can afford".

the benefit of this kind of car is, there IS a buyer out there if you end up running into trouble paying for it in the future

^^^ so much truth.

buy it, and if u need to sell it u deff wont have a problem. It would be worth it even if u just had it for like a week. The XJ13 is amazing, and so rare.
