Very Satisfied
My 99 Audi A4 - 5 speed with every option including special suspension and recaro seats still looked new, but I needed something a touch larger. I had been actively looking and driving everything from the BMW 6 series through Lexus GS for over a year. Nothing was getting me excited on looks or even came close to the fun of driving the Audi. FGOS - the new A5 was to small. Then I saw the XF, tested it and bought one on the spot. It may not be as nimble as my previous car but it is certainly fun of a different kind to drive. I actually look forward to my 60 min commute to work each way. So far no regrets.
The New Jag Rocks!
Great car. Great looks, Great build quality. Very impressive and comfortable. This is a winner, and it shows that Jaguar can build a great sedan at a reasonable price.

Can't live with the vibration
The supercharged XF sold itself when I saw if for the first time. Unfortunately, it might sell itself again if Jaguar doesnt address the steering vibration. For a still undetermined reason my XF shakes. It is most noticeable (and visible) in the steering wheel, but can also be felt in my seat as well. My dealer has tried everything they know how to do and it still shakes. Jaguar engineers say its a high performance car and vibration is to be expected. I say if theyre betting Jaguars future on this car, they might want rethink their position. Regrettably, despite its promising appearance its not a car Id recommend until they get the first year bugs worked out.
XF Exceptional!
This is not a traditional Jaguar in design or execution. I had two prior Jaguars that I enjoyed, but this XF breaks out of the old Jag form, with grace and style! Great looking, nice build quality, great features. The car looks like a four door coupe, and the interior is gorgeous with nice materials and features. The drive is crisp, and handling is good. There is just enough soundproofing to offer comfort, but not total isolation. The engine performs well, even without supercharger, and the exhaust tuning sounds great too. I was originally a skeptic of the pop up shifter, but it is easy to use, and with the paddle shifters it is easy to executre crisp gear changes.
Excellent Cat
I have a 2001 XKR convertible and I needed a good sport sedan. I am thoroughly impressed with my new supercharged XF in every way. The performance is outstanding in every way: acceleration, braking, turns, and overall handling. One of my first drives was to drive up and down the very narrow and winding Spring Mountain Road in Napa. The vehicle performed like a sports car, hugging the turns and going 60 mph both up- and downhill with no effort. The paddle shifts are perfect. The vehicle is very comfortable and the passengers enjoy the handling, even when I drive it fast (the only way to drive this vehicle). I get compliments of the auto's looks every day. This vehicle should save Jaguar.
Can't wait to drive to work each day
This is the best car Jaguar has ever built. I've owned 2 XJs, and while the XJs had their high points, this car is fun, comfortable, economical (compared to the XJs), and a modern. I constantly look for excuses to go for a drive. I hit 28 MPG on the freeway and 18+ in city driving. Not bad for a V8. I've had more people stop to ask what kind of car it was, out of the blue - in parking lots, drive-throughs, etc. The 440W audio is the best you'll find in a car in this class. The interior is nearly flawless (one more storage compartment would make it perfect). Living in town, I've yet to push it anywhere near the limits - and the acceleration far exceeds my expectations.
Tested all in its class
Biggest problem is the people who stop you to ask what is this? Never had a car with more compliments, praises, and surprised that it isn't a 80K or more car. Have owned many cars, this is a good one; have had no problems, and being a gadget freak, I find the navigation a little clumsy to operate. Stereo is incredible. In short, if you want to really enjoy driving, give it a shot before buying anything else.
My First Jag
Well, the previous jags were a snorefest to me. Than I saw it on the internet and bought it based solely on research and reviews without ever seeing one in person. So I would say, yeah they got it right if a never-before-jag owner just had to have one. It could have turned out after all that wait and anticipation that the reality may not live up to the expectation. However, despite my growing expectations, the car (inside and out plus its performance) blew me away. It is as near perfect car as I have ever known.
2009 - The Year Of The Cat
Last September I put a $1000 deposit on a picture in the Jag dealers showroom and I set my sights on the April delevery date. I am totally satisfied. This car is an adrenaline pumping, eye catching, heart pounding, head turning, curve hugging, road loving, lap of luxury feline. I can find no great fault or lack of thought in the XF. If there is a model that will end for all time the second rate standing of the latterday Jaguar, the XF will do it. I believe this model is an instant classic. Check it out and you tell me if I'm wrong.
XF Supercharged
Having owned an E-Type V12 many years ago I decided to try another Jaguar and I most certainly am not disappointed. The difference in build quality, performance and reliability is stunning. Where my E-Type broke down every time I took it out, my XF has been flawless. I can't think of one thing to complain about other than the voice doesn't control the climate or audio - big deal. The performance is breathtaking and this is by far the best car I have ever owned. Thank God for the automatic speed limiter as I am sure I would have been arrested for speeding by now. The only problem is everyone keeps asking me about it, at stop lights, parking lots - everywhere. A small price to pay.
Automotive nirvana
I have owned a number of Jaguars, and this is the best one yet. Exhilarating performance blended with quiet luxury, subtley agressive good looks, sophisticated design, amazing fit and finish. This car looks lots better in person than in pictures, and just wait till you drive it. People are giving me the thumbs up wherever I drive it. My jags (all V8s) have been reliable as heck and fit/finish of this exceeds all prior models. Gas mileage thus far is about 16 in town, about 23-24 highway but I haven't gotten wild yet. The dynamic mode and paddle shifters are a blast! Some Jag fuddy-duddies won't like the look, but I say tough tiddly- winks; this is the kind of departure Jag needed.
