Jaguar is slow to release models and features.

That is a British disease.

Profits and sales are up overall, but maybe not in USA?

It's arguable whether Jaguar is British. Somewhat yes, somewhat no?

They're in niche markets with oversupply. I'm surprised they're profitable whereas some car companies aren't!

According to this November 2014 Car and Driver review, the Jaguar XF sales have "exploded" since AWD models were released.

They are working on it!

Has Jaguar regained the trust they once had? - Torque News

If they want to get younger buyers quickly, they need to bribe the Miley's and Kim's to drive them. They can definitely be bought.

They already do with Lana Del Ray, but she doesn't make the news very much.

November sales increased over October's, still down compared to last November but a nice improvement nonetheless.

Like others said the XF is getting long in the tooth. My wife is starting to get the new car itch and we have been loyal Jaguar lovers for a while. But the 2015 XF offers nothing new compared to her 09 making it worth the upgrade.

She likes the F-type but she also likes the new Stingray and the $30,000 difference is hard to ignore. Plus that new vette is sweet.

I read that both of the engines blew in the two test cars that Car & Driver used. Yikes.

Meh, I would trust an LS (Or LT as this generation is being called) over just about any other gasoline engine out there when it comes to reliability.
