Default Jaguar XF Interior

Honestly...it seems a little...cold. I also prefer a console mounted, gated shifter over the steering column, or elsewhere.

This car could be a Lexus, doesn't look like a Jag at all. There is a way to go forward without looking like a Japanese car....

Hmm, the only thing that I recognise as Jaguar is the interior door lock **** that's eerily similar to the X-Type (I think). The screen inset with vents flanking the side is very Japanese. In fact, I think the Corolla had this set up or some JDM Toyota model.

This is somewhat disappointing. Hopefully being a preproduction model it's missing some embellishments. Ian Callum said a Jaguar interior needs to have a sense of drama and fun and makes you not want to get out. This doesnt' really seem to have any of that.

On the other hand, it does seem to ahve kept the concept's cool rotary gear ****.

Looks like a Lincoln interior. Are they still Ford based?

Isnt there a Toyota Crown interior that kinda looks like that, or used to look like that??

Not a lot of buttons like the other European cars, but Im liking this layout more than what BMW or MB is currently offering (with there rotary command/idrive *****) even if it is a little cold.

Will wait to see what official pics will look like. It does look to have an all leather dashboard though.

The center console kinda looks like the sc430's console
I like the exterior though.

Ian Callum is a big Lexus fan and cites the L-Finesse styling as a direction Jaguar should be going down.
