That's a good looking car, especially from the rear.
Looks like they decided to get rid of the "rear seat", but from the side, it looks a lot like the small BMW and some of the other small two seaters with a sort of bob tailed look.
I know that our rear seats are essentially a package holding area, and not real rear seats, but I like that little bit of extra length that gives it a bit of sleekness from the side.
I am thinking that this car, if produced as we see in these photos, would be more a legitimate sports car, rather than a GT.

So, I guess that this is, in fact, Jaguar's version of a true sports car.
As I am sure you know better than I, I don't recall Jaguar offering a true sports car since the original XKE, and, please correct me if I am wrong because I don't pretend to know every single model of every Jaguar ever produced.
Clearly, this is a good move for Jaguar to reach into a space that they have not gone after in quite some time.

I guess I will be the lone dissenter on this one.
To me it looks like a cross between a Granturismo and, God help me for saying this, an S2000 Honda. The front is bland, not unlike the latest XKs and the rear looks pinched.
No doubt it is a good market for Jaguar to get into and is a sound business decision, but it just doesn't do it for me. I'll stick with the X100 for now.

Yup, another 'very handsome and efficient vehicle', but not beautiful - no graceful flowing lines - its all angles and slashes enforced by aerodynamic CAD programs.
You can see where they have tried to keep the new Aston/XK look, but IMO it could just as easily have 4 circles on the front.
