Im gona share a little treat with you...
I was fortunate enough to see the brand new Jaguar XK at a special showing at the factory where it is being made. I am not able to show you pictures from the factory but I am allowed to leak a few from the design studio. It looks great in the flesh although there is such little space in the back seats and boot. The safety technology is fantastic and the build quality and choice of colours are also superb! Sorry I cant show any more pics because they are not supposed to be released yet. But for now - Enjoy!

Dont worry bout it. The pics arent gr8 anywayz although it was incredible seein all the models in different colours and with different wheels/interiors and seein the cars all bein actually made when I was there - pre-production/showroom cars. Best colour combination in my opinion is the convertible in the mid-grey with a black hood and black/silver interior. - Looks just like a DB9 Volante.

i dont know why they decided to use lame ass fog lights, the concept was so much better. Now it realy does look like an XK, laughable because its supposed to be a coupe but just looks too boring.

Overall I like it. Only if the Jag emblem was positioned above the grill, which could have been a little bigger. Also, more aggressive looking headlights would make it less meak/unfocused.
