Jaguar Car Description
Jaguar, More Than Just a Car The first time I laid my eyes on her, I knew it was love at first sight. The way she glimmered in the sunlight when she was cleaned up and the way she looked so beautiful with all of those curves of hers. I knew that this was going to be a great relationship before she was even mine and that it could blossom into that lasting thing that I had been looking for. This 1982 Jaguar was just the car I had been looking for. The car company, Jaguar, came out with a car that had outstanding features ranging from the interior with all the different options to the exterior that was a marvel in engineering feats. Jaguar came out with one of the most unique cars that was ever built in 1982.
Jaguar had built many other types of sporty cars but nothing like what they had in mind like this. Romick’s (n.d.) publishing states that Jaguar got their start when they: released in 1979 as a 1980 model, the Jaguar XJ6 Series III was called the most refined XJ to date. The Series III retained the 4.2-liter straight-six engine and four-wheel independent suspension of the original XJ6 models, plus the fuel injection and electronic ignition that was introduced on late-model XJ6 Series II cars sold in the U.S. Styling on the body on the XJ6 Series III was done by Carrozzeria Pininfarina. It was the first time Jaguar went outside the company for design input. Design upgrades included a steeper windshield, increased rear headroom, taller front seats with adjustable lumbar support, flush door handles and increased sound insulation. The 1980 model carried a base MSRP of $25,000 and was loaded with high-end standard equipment like power sunroof, windows, mirrors, antenna and locks. Leather upholstery, matched wood veneer, cruise control, automatic climate control with separate rear controls, four-speaker AM/FM cassette and deep-pile carpeting were also standard (Early XJ6 Series III section, para. 3). At first glance, this four-door sedan looks like
