Quattroporte vs. XJR

[Piacki_117]

Wich of these car would you choose? I have chosen them because they are real sportscar, what is rare in this category.

[Cotterik]

I wouldnt be able to live with the automatic gearbox in the maserati, and even with the manual, id regret not buying the jag; its more sophisticated.

This was a tough decision but a Maserati is always a Maserati. So it got my vote.

I think unrestricted the Jaguar can do about 180mph (290km/h). The XJR gets my vote, because while both are wonderful, the jag makes more sense a luxury 4-door saloon. Though this one, both are great to be honest. If I could I would get an XJr an then a Maserati Coupé GT. :D

maserati....yummm

[Piacki_117]

I voted for the XJR for the same reasons than Cotterik. And I like its look more.

[johnnyperl]

saw a quatteo in this amazing bronze color, looks quite good in person. i could live with the F1 box, itd be worth it overall.

[ScionDriver]

Such a tough choice. But I'd ge the Jag, as long as I can remember I have had a love for the XJR.

[aNOBLEman]

I'd take the Jag because I like its looks a lot more than the Maserati's. It's also lighter and faster than the Maserati. I also like the interior more, it has a nice, traditional English feel.

[Vindesh17]

I voted for the maserati. My uncle testdrove the maserati, S55 AMG, 760Li and the XJR. all 04 models from a dealership and I was with him. I loved the maserati with the bmw in second, XJR in third then the benz

[Gnafu the Great]

Jaguar, 'cause I love Jaguars and it looks better ;). What I'd really want would be the Jaguar Super V8 ;).

[silverhawk]

i'Ve sat in the XJ & its nce except for that too much plastic is used in the controls. The maserati looks amazing, very rare & powerful. there's a Quattroporte in my University & it sounds amazing, even when its just going over the speed breaker it sounds like a sports car.
Did you know that the wide variety of colour and personal stitches in the Quattroporte allows you 4 million combinations.

[Rijoh]

Saw an Quattroporte yesterday, it looks absolutely superb, XJR is oldfashioned, so 4-porte :)

[car_fiend]

I'd have to go with the Maserati, for the reason that I just don't like Jags. Also, the fact that everyone that I know who has owned a Jag has ran into many problem (non-mechanical) with the car (i.e, the glove compartment latch broke, the trunk closes but the alignment with the body is completely off, etc...). And besides, as dul stated, a Maserati is a Maserati.

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

meh...Quattroporte...you all know how i am with fords and all closely affiliated makes.
i saw the maserati next to the coupes and i must say the styling is absolutely striking in person-that alone comepletely blows away the for...er...Jag

[250 GTO]

the Quattroport is way better

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

you just tied it up...this is close :)

[250 GTO]

To close :)

[Vaigra]

quattroporte for me. Much more unique

[Birdman]

I"m going with the jag on this one. Just like the classic look of it.
