What really counts is consumer response, and gaging from most forums, so far, it's split...

In my opinion, this is the step in the right direction!
The last XJ wasn't really new, especially when you compared the design of the new one with the old...
This concept car could also speak to costumers of Mercedes and BMW!

Re: Jaguar C-XF Concept @ NAIAS 2007

I must say I quite like this, hopefully it will help Jags sales a lot, they can't keep on making dated cars, the XK started the new designs, and this continues them!

As a matter of fact the car itself is yet another nail in the coffin for Jaguar.
The looks are far from graceful and elegant as the looks of the cars from the past. Even the new XK looks more British than this "Frisker head lights-Lexus IS side profile-Lincoln concept rear". Then again I'm not going to bash it too much since it isn't that ugly.
My biggest concern is that Ford already has an Aston Martin four door coupe in the pipe line. Why the hell would the want to give us a Jaguar one at the same time. My guess is that thic concept is probably the up coming S-type.
I totally agree with you Hassan.

I have never been a Jaguar fan, but as far as I have ever understood, the main thing that attracts buyers to the brand is the instantly recognizable style of Jaguar ....and also the traditional interior design -- afterall, what else does Jaguar really have going for it?

I can't say this is a terrible concept ...but for Jaguar it is just so wrong.

I am left wondering: why did they bother?

Re: Jaguar C-XF Concept @ NAIAS 2007



Its a nice enough looking car, but it doesn't say Jaguar at all. It looks like something any Japanese or American brand could come up with. It sorta looks like the Aston-Martin Ripade or dare I say a squared off CLS.

Re: Jaguar C-XF Concept @ NAIAS 2007

I don't know about you guys, but I personally like this. I know its a step away from the original Jag designs, but can you really blame them? Jaguar hasn't had any major design changes forever. They are a struggling brand right now and that is partly due to poor and old design. I've never considered even for a second owning a Jag but this actually makes me say "hmm..." While this design isn't perfect, it's still ways better a lot of the cars out there. And even if this design copies/takes after the Aston Martin Rapide or the CLS, is that really a bad thing?
