Yeah and it's so affordable too at the low low base price of 76 grand.

The XJR is bloody gorgeous! :drool: The S/C'd AJP-V8 doesn't hurt it's appeal either. h:

The X-Type and S-type, OTOH, look like ass compared to the Jags of olde.

I remember going to a Summit Point NASA event that had an XJR driver.

It was scary fast, even compared to the Porsche race cars.

What hurts Jaguar in USDM is the fact that it simply does not compare well with Porsche and many other cars when it comes to overall reliability.

That little AWD sedan they sell looks awesome on paper, but it generates a fair share of customer complaints and repair incidents.

I don't really like the looks of the new aluminum XJ. Compared to the old version the beltline is too high and in general it looks too upright.
