This is a very beautiful Jaguar. The way you see it is the way it is maintained. Always garaged, it has the classic styling of the early Jaguars with modern engineering for durability, speed and elegance. In 2005, the S-Type received a mild refreshing with a revised interior, a retuned suspension, and the addition of the great ZF six-speed transmission as standard on all models.

The high-performance trim line - designated "R" - boasts a supercharged 4.2-liter V8 that spins out 400-hp and 400-lb ft of torque with a sports configured suspension laced up with big Brembo brakes. The supercharger offers immediate response, linear power, and what feels like limitless torque. When the supercharger sings, this almost 2-ton beauty can flash from 0 to 60 in 5.1 seconds and reach an electronically governed 155 mph.

The ZF six-speed, considered by some as the best automatic out there - used on the new BMW 7 Series - adapts to the driving conditions. In sport mode, it holds the gear for corners and hills and stays in fifth until it senses a steady state for 30 seconds. Power flows through this silky smooth transmission to Jaguar's unique Computer Active Technology Suspension (CATS) that uses electronic control systems dynamically to tune the suspension in accordance with the driving conditions. You get it all: dampening when the road gets rough, firmness through the corners with sensitivity to changing road conditions. The R comes with ABS and Emergency Brake Assist, Dynamic Stability Control, and traction control. It even has an aluminum hood to improve the car's weight distribution.

Rich leather, stitched upholstery wraps the passengers in close, luxurious comfort. The R offers tighter front seating with increased bolstering to hold the occupants in on those twisty roads. The rear seats 60/40 split fold down to increase cargo space.

With the whine of the supercharger, the sinuous body styling, the close, well-appointed cockpit, and the masterful command of the road - this Jaguar will make you feel like you've arrived.

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study

Wed, Jul 22 2015

The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car.

Which is hotter, Lana Del Rey or the Jaguar F-Type?

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

Lana Del Rey's "Burning Desire" video, the first musical collaboration between Jaguar and its hired songstress, is half music video, half long-form lifestyle commercial for the 2014 F-Type. If you like Del Rey channeling glamorous fifties fame as she lays down vocals of sensuous, languid dolor over images of black-and-white yesteryears, you'll like this song off of her new EP, Paradise.
We think the appearance of a red and brand-new Jaguar, though, is incongruous - either Del Rey or Jaguar is the anachronism, take your pic. That's not to say it's not beautiful, however, so enjoy the combination in the video below.

Weekly Recap: The divergent paths of Tesla and Fisker

Sat, 02 Aug 2014

There's no doubt that Tesla is downshifting while Fisker has been grinding its gears. But it wasn't always that way.
In the wake of Tesla's recent success, it's easy to forget that there were once two California electric carmakers with bright futures.
