It blows away my Mercedes SL.

I’m seriously looking at moving up to an XKR, but not past 2003 or 2004. After that the body modifications ruin the gorgeous clean lines that brought Jag back from the dead. Way too much tacked on “spoilage”. 400 hp was plenty. The maniacle race for horsepower and bigger wagon wheels doesn’t make the newer Jags…or any of the sports cars…any better.

It is simply stunning to behold and has incredible performance. It is essentially an Aston Martin for a fraction of the price. It’s the sports car for grown ups.
I honestly think Jaguar is one of the most under-rated brands out there.
