Big Blue Beast - 2013 Jaguar XJ
By melancholyman - June 17 - 4:28 amAlways thought Id wind up with a Mercedes-Benz or Lexus. Looked at E-Class Mercedes and Lexus ES and GS. Found the Mercedes interior disappointing. Sitting in both Lexus models was like sitting inside a computer: soulless and cold. No personality or warmth at all. Sitting in my AWD XJ is like being in a leather chair in an English gentlemans club. Plenty of power, excellent handling. Design and build quality both superb. A bigger car than I actually wanted, but, when we sat in it, my wife and I just looked at each other and knew wed found our car.

Welcome to my gentlemans stage of life - 2013 Jaguar XJ
By cbrandi - August 22 - 3:41 amIve owned performance oriented cars of all stripes. This is my first tilt into the luxury side of the equation. Ive had two previous Jaguars and loved them, being fast, comfortable and beautiful. I like the fact that these cars stand apart from the German crowd. They offer color choices and interior choices unlike the German boredom. BTW Ive owned several German cars too.

Best value for $$$ - 2013 Jaguar XJ
By carlspackler1 - June 28 - 9:46 amSimply the best car Ive owned. After many Mercedes, I grew tired of their mundane interiors, and lately their Rube Goldberg exterior styling. The interior is measureably more luxurious and inviting than any Mercedes weve owned. The doors close with a solid "thunk" reflecting the quality. Instrumentation is straightforward, and the audio quality is far beyond anything weve heard from Mercedes. Despite the negative reviews of the audio/navigation system, weve found this system much more user friendly, and programs easier than Mercedes clunky system.
