The person who developed the iconic Aston Martin body shape of the last decade or so moved to Jag within the last few years. It's no wonder that Jags have taken on a very Aston Martin like shape.
It is not an unpleasant shape, but I think this designer is a one trick pony. |

Probably true. I just don't understand how people can think the new Jag styling is so fresh and fantastic when it's a modification to what Aston Martin has been producing for the last 10 years. Perhaps it's the Jag models falling into a more "affordable" price bracket?
As I said, it's not an unappealing shape / style. It just isn't something we haven't seen before. |

Honestly, even if it were base STI price and had a big brake kit, and better struts, and 300hp with a beefed up diff/trans I'd still consider it a decent value. Leave the interior as is. But, it lacks AWD and the diffs that come with it and would still be short a little bit of power compared to other RWD v6 coupes, but it's lighter and handles better accordingly, so I'd probably say base MSRP of like 32k would be acceptable. 30k would make it a good bargain like the new mustang gt.

Yes, but nanosecond you think you got robbed because you are 30Hp down you can walk out, lock the doors, and when you glance back you get to look at a Jag....
Money, well, spent. |

This guy. I've had the pleasure to drive an xk and an xk r. They simply have their own personality and a jaguar is a pretty damn close comparison.

I didn't realize that top of the line Jags get exclusive "French racing blue" paint job. That's gotta rub some football hooligan types the wrong way, no?

It's a fresh take on a classic design!
