Of the 2, the Jaguar has the class.

If you said "I own a Jaguar" , answer "WOW !!!"
If you said "I own an Infiniti" , answer "A what ?!?"

You decide.

In New Zealand maybe so, but in the U.S Infiniti is held in just as high grade as Jaguar is.

Yes, I know about the "Infiniti" and it's Toyota competitor "Lexus" as well as "Acura", etc. , but the "Jaguar" name, is still more well known, and hence more recognition.

Standard Jag is ---- front wheel drive.
The AWD is 4WD version.

From www.jaguar.com/uk/en/x-type/overview/default.htm

The standard 2.5 and 3.0 V6 is 4WD, the 2.0 is FWD

True Kiwitt, very true.

If only Americans were not blinded by the ridiculous amounts of chrome on nearly every American car, they could see that a Jaguar clearly outshines a Infiniti...

Then the 2.0 is simply horrid.

With "Barclays" a British company owning 3.7% - the highest single shareholder. The days of a major company being owned solely by one country are long gone.

With car's you need to consider where/how/why they are made and not by who owns them.

e.g. Aston Martin is owned by Ford too, but I still consider that a hand-made British product.

I agree whole haertedly.

The Land Rover is also owned by Ford. It's also powered by a German engine, so it has a bit of everything.
