Default need objective feedback please

ok i might look into buying another car in the future. this is hypothetically speaking of course and i am looking into two cars of right now assuming they dont sell. but i love the vip style scene and this website of course and i'd really like to get a car that has a strong market for vip aftermarket parts and top notch reliability. please give feedback if you ever drove in one of them before and are knowledgeable about quirks or things i should consider before buying them. here they are:

1998 Lexus LS 400 has 9*,*** miles on it.
i love lexus


but i hear the xjr is beastly????

1996 Jaguar XJR has 9*,*** miles on it.

I love the Jag but the electronic gremlins will drive you nuts. It is a 2nd car though. The LS is perfect, the 98 has all the new updates.
