Just washed/cleaned my Tuxedo Black SHO, feeling really good about her, when I go to CVS and a black 2014 Supercharged V6 AWD Jaguar XJL pulls in next to me. Nice.

Car was very impressive in person, gorgeous. Looked even bigger than our SHO, an $80,000 car!

In person, the car looked absolutely great.

It's 4" longer but weighs 200 lbs less than our SHO. With 340 hp, acceleration times are identical:

Well, the only fairly comparison is stock times.

Still, for the price of the Jag you can buy one SHO non PP for Winter and one SHO PP for Summer fun. :)

Saw four of these yesterday while driving around ....
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

The SHO overall retains its value fairly well compared to the Jaguar which in a couple of years will be worth less then the SHO.lol. Z

I don't want anyone to think I'm chopping our SHO, I'm not.

I feel lucky to own one and am glad Ford made it. I was looking for a high performance AWD car and the SHO fit the bill perfectly.

While I could've purchased a new one, it would have been a stretch and having found a used '14 at 20k off sticker is exactly what the doctor ordered.

Just that when I saw the Jag (having never seen one before) it was a bit striking, that's all!

The back end is FUGLY...but I do love me some Jag's, usually very good looking cars

It looked pretty bad a$$ in person, and regarding the whole car, it gave the distinct impression of being lower/sleeker ...
