Side profile reminds me of a Nissan GTR with the wing.

Besides the R-S badging/stitching looking eerily close to Audi's RS line, I tip my hat to Jag on their new stuff. High hp, nice inside and out. I think the company is back on the map.

This is only slightly different from the anniversary edition. Tata is going to have to innovate; styling changes and a different blower pulley aren't impressive. Let's see a wet clutch transmission or double clutch unit, seven or eight forward speeds, uprated brakes or anything to demonstrate that Tata is doing anything more than emptying Ford's 2004 parts bin and R&D.

Pretty car, but like the Astons, technically underwhelming.

The wing completely ruined what is otherwise a great looking car from the rear.

I think the XKR started to look bit out of date.

This Jag really has a lot of potential, looks absolutely great, and the specs are actually very convincing. I agree with above posters that this has put them back on the top in a proper Jag way
I mean what more can I say? It's a Jag.
