Actually, his grandparents (my wife's mom and dad) paid for the car (gave an amount for him to spend on his first car), my wife "allowed" him to get the crossfire with a little help from dad We were able to get a 3yr 36,000 premium warranty with seal and normal wear and tear also for it (even though it has 121k miles on it).

I would like to go to a meet with my son and the xf some time.

edit: I took it out for a bit of a spin, while Josh was at school, after putting new Conti's on the rear today and really like the feel of the car. It's a spunky little road hugger Maybe there's an SRT6 in my future (you know, a 2nd mid life crises thing).
