These jags are amazing cars but Jag has to stop making their cars looking like Aston's. Its some serious competition of which one looks better and which one performs and handles better.

I'm no Jaguar expert, but I thought the X-type was the one built from the Taurus chassis.

Actually, the Jaguar XF looks very BMW like from the rear tail lights to the Hofmeister kink and wheels.

Wouldn't really call it poor mans. I'm guessing this will run in the 90s to 100s since the normal XKR is about 85k no? It still looks good. Reminds me of a DB9 with some V8 Vantage mixed in.

Technically they didn't steal it, since AM is under the Ford marquee. Rather, was.
The same designer who designed the Aston Martin went to work for Jag and came up with the XKR.

The similarities being a striking coincidence? Most definately not.
