The blue lighting and fake CF leather are a cheap looking execution. But, it sounded pretty cool.

I actually really liked this video as we are seeing alot of very sporty grand tourer cars emerging, but really why not just buy a car designed to do that in the first place and for less money?

That Nissan is an amazing car. For me though, I'd rather have the Jag. The Nissan is soul-less. It's amazingly fast and handles like nothing else but there's no passion behind it. It's too sterile for me. Too much like a video game. It was really quiet too!

The Jag on the other hand? That sounded like the apocalypse! And I'm surprised Jeremy didn't like the Jag more. When he tested the XKR a couple of years ago he LOVED it! Said it was better than the Aston and just needed more power. Now it has more power and should be perfect!

Wow that GTR is impressive!
and the new XKR-S, i have to say, Jaguar have finally made something good after the XJ220. Wow took them almoost 19 years to make something good. But i feel the rear spoiler has to go

You'd have to go into a Nissan dealership to buy a GTR and deal with some sales person that maybe has been there 3 weeks and may leave in 2. It's a fast car no doubt but realistically where are you going use it's speed on a day to day basis. Like they said what nut job is going to the launch control feature. Oh yeah some 23 year old that buys a GTR. A Ricers dream car nothing else. No thanks. Plus it's ugly yo boot. Japanese Panamera.
