Default Jaguar introduces "Classic Infotainment System"

Jaguar is making a new infotainment / radio for the SIII, XJS, & XJ40. Available in chrome or black. Has all the "modern" gimmicks. Cost is reportedly $1400. Yikes! Guess I'll stick with my JVC/Kenwood.

yeahh, $1.400.00 plus labor at $90.00 per hour, plus "shop supplies", plus Sales Tax.

most people can't afford a $200.00 radio, why bother when you already have those gimmicks in your smart phone and then some?

good luck with that!

I had a beautiful Cadillac with a RetroSound unit. Bluetooth etc and it had a classic look. They run around $300. I could load my entire music collection on a thumb drive, plug it in the glove box and the RetroSound unit played them in shuffle mode. Highly recommend it.
