And if so, is there actually a British equivalent to the Big Boys?

It's about time we had another Jag with a sense of purpose and attitude about it - I like it :)

Let's hope they have the plums to make it.

]]> <![CDATA[Detroit Auto Show Preview: Nevermind The Embargo Or The Bollocks, It's The Jaguar C-XF Concept Car!]]> Overall, I like it. Though a few things came to my mind as I browsed the pics:

- front lights look a little too small next to the Subaru grill; in fact, they look downright 'kinetic' to me
- rear 3/4 view reminds me of the Lincoln MKR concept for some reason; I wonder if it's the same platform underneath...
- ccw tachometer is goofy
- B&W speakers, awesome!

I'd love to see it in person. Must say that I've been impressed with Ford's latest concepts. I just hope they can bring them to market within 2 years without too much dilution.

The concept is especially good looking from the "12 o'clock high" view, I think.
