Default JAG destroying the new Aston

Is that our V8 I hear?
Either way, the looks, the sound and a far superior stunt driver! Nuff said...

That's not true actually. The DB10 was a Bond only movie. The DB9 replacement will be called DB9 or DB11.

Okay, it will be called DB"something" else but will look very much similar to this car as the CX-75 will not be built ...

Don't be surprised if Jaguar reverses their position on the CX-75.

I wouldn't be surprised. But for now it is shelved and the concept is getting old despite I am liking the look.
Jaguar has the new XF coming out and possibly an XK follower, and/or XJ refresh before that happens. I hope it will not be an XJ220 limited run. The current V8 has enough room for them to have 700+ hyper car hp so that they could build a larger and less crazy money lot without having to build a completely new engine.

I completely agree...there's no reason to build a $1 million car...they should build something that is aspirational, but not only for billionaires.

Ok JLR, some free consulting:

1. An aluminum CX-75 with some carbon fiber, plus a 700 hp engine for $275,000 to $325,000..would be just right. Name: R-type SVR.

2. An aluminum coupe version of the XJ with a sleeker nose and maybe a revised more driver focused interior. Name: XJS (the name alone would be a draw).

3. An aluminum coupe version of the XF, but with heavily revised styling inside and out. Should look like a bigger grand touring version of the F-Type. Same powertrains as the F-Type, including the V8R. Name: XK
