Highlights...

"As carmakers chase the booming sales of the entry-luxury segment, they always run the risk of cheapening their good names. That's the big question for Jaguar, which launched a lower-priced car for the first time in its history."

"When I think of Jaguars, I picture sleek, sexy cars with opulent luxury inside. Even the hood ornament - the very recognizable leaper - seemed out of place lunging off the X-type's short hood. It's the equivalent of putting an elegant grandfather clock in a college dorm room. I really enjoyed this car - except for it unusually soft brakes - but Jaguar may have reached too low. The X-type would have made a nice Lincoln."
