Top Gear: Jaguar's XFR Vs. BMW's M5

The BMW M5 needs no introduction anymore and everyone acknowledges that the M5 has been, as Mr. Clarkson says also, “the ultimate sport saloon”….well, sedan as we call it here in the U.S.

So, Top Gear decided to take the Ultimate Driving Machine, that being the M5 for those that were in doubt, against the the newly and somewhat highly praised Jaguar XFR. But before we jump into the 7 minutes or so video, let’s review the two cars from a technology standpoint.

Definitely the most well rounded car in its class. Imo, the best looking as well.

I'm still in shock Clarkson said something nice about a BMW. He must really like the M5.

The Jag is simply beautiful, the M5 is a legend.

But, am I the only one who misses the Leaping Cat?

Looks are fine of the new Jaguars, inside out, but without the symbol standing up at the front, to me, there is always something missing.
