You dreamed of a big star -
He played a mean guitar -
He loved to drive his Jaguar...

So welcome to the machine
I don't judge interiors simply on that, obviously I love a good build quality.

But I don't see any other "kids" my age with a Jag

Tru dat, we do indeed seem to represent an, ah..., older "demographic".

But just the same, since the end of the X-Type Jaguars have been pretty big (other than XKs and F-Types, but that's a different thing) with nothing to compare against an A4 or 3-Series, two cars definitely aimed at a younger market. XEs correct that.

Thanks for all the replies.
I absolutely love the car, love every time I have to go somewhere so I can get to drive it.
Min trying to figure out the best way of utilizing the 800 watt meridian system. I HATE that I have to connect my iPhone with a cable. Absolutely hate it. Yea, I can use Bluetooth, but then there goes the whole technology feature of the car.
anybody find a good solution to this yet?

I still think Jaguar has a bit to go to get a younger demographic into their cars, but all of my friends love my XE R-sport.

F-Types are amazing and I think any young lad will want that as a future sport car!

The F-Pace is doing wonders with women who shop around for crossovers, eh and dads alike I suppose.

The XF I drove was very nice, and I wouldn't mind having an XF-S instead of the XE I have.

Its funny you noticed that too , as soon as my car passed 5K last month I noticed that its a very different car , it almost feels as if it was held back then let go , I am wondering if its software programed to do that .

I use CD's best sound quality overall.

Unfortunately you can really only use Jaguar's incontrol app or bluetooth. Stinks that they have no android auto/apple car play.

Default WoW!!

So I could have sworn my car had the 360 view camera but when I couldn't find the option, called my salesman who confirmed I DID NOT HAVE IT, I just accepted that I didn't have it.
Thats until 3 minutes ago when I pulled into my driveway, then put my car in reverse and a whole window appeared on the screen that I've never seen before. ( keep in mind I have been driving this car about a month now). So I was able to touch all the onscreen buttons, and even though they didn't do anything, could it be that I actually DO HAVE THE 360 VIEW CAMERA???
I HAVE A 2017 XE 35t AWD 'FIRST EDITION'.

Thanks everyone.

There is a hard-drive you can rip media to, but figuring it out and spending time to actually do it is difficult to say the least.

Jaguar should have a removable drive and a desktop application that you helps you load music while maintaining format and naming conventions, etc... Would make the customer actually want to rip media to the drive
