this is perfect for my dad………….he? needs this or me
i really want this car is it worth it because money isnt a? problem
@tres311 Something that usually a fag would? say….
@davewhodavedunn? The reliability is brilliant now.
I was in one of these at the pittsburgh auto show this year. They had top gun playing on the screen in the front. The sound system in? that machine is amazing. Absolutely beautiful car
Jeeze 4.2 seconds wtf is that? shit. For that huge ass car thats NUTS!
On paper alone the Jaguar Supersport has brought the fight to? the Mercedes AMGs,BMW Ms, and Audi Ss of the world, but in a Jaguar way. Im saving up for my Supersport, should have by 2012.
@DroidNoid agree i was at the? sacramento international car show and had the Cadillac cts v and it was 73,000 and the seats felt hard and there not a lot of room in the back but going into this Jag was just so good and feels like a expensive car
Great? exhaust note!
@StuRaz Fair? enough…wait I just got distracted…XJ-R…mmmmmmm!
@hiwatari81 You’re just being thick now. If this video was of an M5 or an XJ-R (if it happens) I’d half agree with you, but it doesn’t. This is Jaguars answer to the 7 series, not an M3? or an M5. In a performance car I agree it’s relevant but not here and they’ve completely ignored everything that matters. It’s so braindead I feel embarrassed for them.
@StuRaz At risk of sounding obtuse, why would BMW have an “M” division at all if performance were not at least a little important. That also goes for Mercedes AMG, and the S and RS cars from Audi. And even a non-M BMW can be had? with 300 & 400+ HP twin turbo engines. Why all the fuss if people aren’t concerned with (at least in part) performance. I understand where you are coming from, but isn’t performance part of the driving experience and therefore a reason to purchase one car or the other.
@hiwatari81 Well I’ve been in the car business for nearly 9 years and I’ve never seen anyone coming in looking at either a BMW 3, 5, 6, or 7 series give one about any of these stats.? It’s a terrible video, you can not defend something like this it’s so far off the point.
@StuRaz Those numbers/stats aren’t? “as” important to most buyers as interior quality, technology packages, driving comfort, interior dimensions etc. But those stats are still important. I agree that it would be nice to see a full-length test to include interior shots and opinions of the test drivers on the quality/comfort…
@hiwatari81 Are they as important as ride quality, mid range torque,? rear leg room, luxury, standard features, boot space, ergonomics build quality, fuel economy? No, and Edmunds has ignored every single one of them that someone looking to buy an XJ would possibly care about. Not skid pan Gs and how quickly it will go through the 1/4 mile post.
@StuRaz Yes actually these are important traits that some buyers look for in this segment. When you spend $80k+ on a luxury sport sedan or even a luxury quasi-sport sedan buyers want to know these things. And every? car sold that I can recollect has been tested in these areas…from the Ford Fiesta, Chevy Trailblazer, Toyota Tundra, Nissan Altima, Mercedes S-Class, Corvette…shall I go on? They are relevant bits of information to some buyers.
this car makes? the german rivals look rather
What the fuck is this?? Does anyone give a shit how the XJ performs here? Might as well test a Viper ACR or a Gumpert Apollo on comfort and rear leg room while they’re at it.
Another mind-blowingly stupid video by Edmunds. Sort it out.
@LeafsFlamesAndOilers The LS is boring to look at, not exciting and certainly NOT cool. Yes it probably is more advanced in some areas, but it really isn’t a car you want to drive unless you’re under the age of 60. The LS may? be popular in America and Canada, but over here in Europe it doesn’t hold a candle against either the S or the 7. Sales of the germans over here are 5 times higher than those of the Lexus.
@jml8841 The Lexus LS absolutely destroys the S-class. Its just not as fast, exciting, cool, or popular as the S so? most people never realize how good it is & it flies under the radar but as far as technology, luxury, & comfort goes, the S class & 7 series are worlds apart from the Lexus.
This car is sexy!? How much is it?
Normally? i’m not a big fan of the brand but this is an exception fore my.
I love this car so much !!!
Those performance figures rival? those of AMG S-class’. Im impressed.
Nice engine note too
@Thebmwisthebest bmw’s r great cars, my dad has an old? m3, i was just pikin fun
@jml8841 year, me dad actually drives and old m3 it is a great car, hopfuly he’ll pass it on to me one day, i just hate all the badge states going on, i think its wat brought down the american car industry “that a cadillac thats for pips? and old people” kind of thing, i was just makin a joke and pikin on the germans
