My youth spent with a beautiful but temperamental British motorcar

Vintage Jaguar ownership is all about looks, style and exclusivity. Temper that with a healthy dose of reality for those times you'll spend sitting on it's bumper waiting for a tow truck to arrive.

Buying the Lexus LFA means eschewing speed records, famous lap times, and revered genealogy. All at cost somewhere near $500K. It means either having great taste or awful taste. Buying a brown one puts you firmly in the former category.
