Absolutely beautiful.

The XJ was incredibly dated/tired. The new car is elegant, classy, fresh and very modern - while still retaining that "Jaguarness". A 10.

To OP;
Yeah, I agree it doesn't have that classic Jag look to it, but I think I like the way the newer Jaguars are going.
Trying to keep the classic theme with a modern touch would've looked too retro.
And frankly, I'm sick and tired of all the retro designs we've been fed with recently.

You must like the Bentley Arnage better than the Flying Spur as I do.
But I guess it's time to let it go and let classics be classics.

The only thing I dislike is it's rear.

Add that car to my list of possible next buy's. Excellent job Jaguar. Not boring like the current bimmers or benz cars.

This car could really start kicking the 7 series, A8, and S class all over town.

Wow, it's about time a manufacturer gave a high resolution digital instrument cluster that is configurable and extremely cool looking. Analog/non-digital gauge clusters will be a thing of the past in the next 5-10 years. It always starts with the luxury cars and trickles down.
