Stave off boredom with these pretty pictures<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Still bored in the house? All quarantine long we\u2019ve been bringing you regular moments of zen<\/a> in the form of some of our most favorite motorcars from around the Turo marketplace. We like cars, you like cars, so let\u2019s look at some cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a 1984 Jaguar XJS coupe, a model that served as Jaguar\u2019s top-of-the-line grand tourer from 1975 all the way to 1996. Kyle\u2019s Jaguar XJS \u201cHE\u201d denotes the \u201chigh-efficiency\u201d 5.3L V12, a smooth-pulling engine that was more efficient than the outgoing V12, as well as more powerful \u2014 265 horsepower for this North American version. thirty seven years into this car\u2019s life, the design of the XJS still cuts a dignified figure with its rear flying buttresses, especially in this green color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XJS cost around $35,000 in 1984, nearly $90,000 in today\u2019s money. So it\u2019s an exclusive luxury cruiser with a proper high-end interior with burled elm panels and remarkably modern features for the era. Well before complicated infotainment systems came along, Jaguar<\/a> introduced a new digital trip computer in the XJS\u2019s center console with a configurable display that swapped between trip info like \u201cinstant\u201d fuel economy, average fuel economy, average speed, and distance. Though these details may not stand out today, as a package, this classic Jaguar offers a stylish and elegant experience that\u2019ll keep you feeling cool and comfortable cruising around New England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
