Review of the supercharged Jaguar XKR

The original XK was beautiful, comfortable and fast, but as far as driving appeal was concerned the Jaguar coupe left a lot to be desired. With the latest model, developers at the British marque focused more on improving the chassis and dynamics rather than boosting the engine alone. In this way they have emphasized the sporty character of the car without distorting the basic formula of a big British GT. This is immediately apparent after driving just a few miles. The direct feel of the steering, faster gearshifts of the automatic transmission, improved sensitivity of the brakes and the more tractable engine all come together to form one sensational package.

i agree it doesnt, its almost bland, the exterior styling seems to stop on the inside, where it looks like they got a little lazy on the styling. most jaguar coupes have nice looking interiors, like the last xk, which is what it seems like the cls drew its inspiration from

Z4 and SLK are beter bets. Beter handling, and more brand reconition.
