Looks good but the front end looks kinda like a ford taurus front end. The proportions look maserati. I don't mind jags but the fit/finish was pretty shoddy with the jag that I rented on a trip to vegas. The stitching on the seats were poorly done and I nearly cut my finger with the plastic molding piece on the steering wheel covering the airbag. I forgot which model it was (the low end one) but the V6 was terrible. My ex-boss had an old jag and his was smoooooth. What happened?

I agree it looks a lot like an Aston... but really y'all, is that a bad thing for the Jag?
I think this will make a VERY serious competitor to the 6-series... and when the convertible comes out, to the Lexus SC as well. IMHO, this looks a lot more classy and expensive/exotic than the 6 does... not to knock the 6 by any means. I'm curious to see how it handles as well. Judging on how well the new all-aluminum XJ sedan handles, i'm guessing this is going to follow suit. Is it going to be all aluminum as well? Props for Jaguar, great looking car.
