i use to work at a local Jaguar dealership and so i had the opportunity to regularly drive the xk's...The first thing that was disappointing was that awe-full antenna...Other then that major design flaw, i really enjoyed driving the car...acceleration felt fast...suspension was just hard enough. Obviously it's still a ford (antenna) however, the XK coupe does look mighty fine and feels o.k as well. Would i buy it? No, i don't think it's worth the money, i don't think it's fun enough to drive, i know its automatic, i don't like the antenna, i think the *** is too big and lastly...i can't afford it.

jags are horrible. I don't know anyone who has ever had anything but bad luck with them. Their customer service and warranty issue department is also the worst. Sorry, not my cup of tea. I'd buy a Honda Civic before a Jag.

we just delivered our first XKR Coupe and the thing was hot. Great exhaust, comfy seat, fast as hell and consider what you're buying for the price $90k not sure what else i'd rather have.

I like Jag XK's.(new ones) Elite looking cars

But today a few hours ago i saw one and DAMN what was that????

There is a huge radio antenna at the back of the car about 1.5meters long

Damn Jag must get rid of that radio antenna ASAP !!!

We looked at them today, really nice in person. Naperville Jag had a British Racing Green vert that was pretty sweet looking.

Didn't like the looks in person, neither did I like the driving experience. Harsh like a sports car, disconnected steering like a limo. Transmission was great, though.
Wouldn't buy it.

Only thing I like is the name: XKR. otherwise, ford can keep it or better, ford should sell the brand off b/c they are killing it.

Silicon got some GTCs in. Just in case you're interested. Def. not at MSRP.
