Are you still looking at XKs? Here’s a 2010 British Racing Green, with a tan top and tan interior, 58k miles, $26k.

Please buy this now, because it’s perfect and I don’t need this sort of temptation in my life.

I didn’t realize how black BRG looks in certain light. Almost wanted to question it before I saw the trunk picture.

That’s what makes it the best car color.

This XK looks like it has gout.

Someone had to say it.

There’s something weird going on with some of their photos.

I like this idea!

Oh my. Excuse me while I go change my shorts...

...back now. This is just what I need. Do you know how hard it is to find a BRG over tan XK in the entire country, let alone at a good price? But, this is in Miami and non-transferable. So, now I have to work on explaining to my wife why we should finance a trip to Miami specifically to buy a used car.

Most of the exterior pics are squished.

Ah, but when the clouds part and the sun hits it, it’s like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

There’s a big jump from 2009 to 2010, mostly because they upgraded the engine. That makes the 2010s more than incrementally more expensive then the ‘09s. But, this one is closer to an ‘09 price, but still clean and with lowish miles.

I do know because that’s my dream color combo, although I’d rather have the coupe.

You have a kid, right? Leave brochures for Disney World around so they get super hyped about a trip to Disney World and take advantage of your wife’s maternal instincts and then be like “oh, while we’re down there...”

Yeah. Actually, this is the cheapest I’ve seen a 2010. It’s close to, but not quite, 07-09 prices.

Well, she has been talking about needing to go to Disney world before The Monster gets too old. Maybe I could sell a trip down with a road trip back. Too bad it’s tax season, and reality has been beating us over the head.

This is actually a rare opportunity, and its from Carmax to boot; so, I could get a decent warranty.

I foresee significant tears in my near future. And alcohol. Much alcohol.

You and me both.

Now the ad says it’s transferable. Ahem. Ahem. Hint. Hint.

I know. I checked. Even with the transfer fee, it’s still a good deal. First thing I gotta do is drive one here to make sure it’s the car for me. Then, I gotta work the numbers.

I’ve never bought a used car before, and a niggling part of my brain thinks the first miles of a car’s life are the best miles. It won’t shut up, and I’ll have to deal severely with it.
