New XF Owner

Hello to everyone in the group. I look forward to sharing my own experience with you guys and gals. I just purchased an '05 Coupe limited in Alabaster White with dark gray interior. Took it on its first ride in the Irish hills of SE Michigan. This thing sticks like glue...It will probably be hard to find its limits on open roads. Will have to take it out to one of the local tracks.
Anyway, I couldn't pass up such a good deal, so I took the plunge, it was one of two '05 leftovers at a local dealer. Manufacturing date is 12/04 so it sat for quite a while. However no flat spot on the tires and original battery holding 100% charge...

Welcome JM! You have at least a few fellow folks from Michigan in this crew. Enjoy the ride!

Welcome to the forum JM!

Glad you're enjoying your XF. One of the first mods you should consider is the one concerning the sound system and capacitors. Check out the other threads ... under "Audio ... "

We're 'kinda' neighbors ... I'm in IL.
