The light treatments look too Fordish. The interior is pure Lincoln. This is no Jag. It’s a piece of junk both in design and execution.

300 horse for 80k large? I don’t think so. If I’m paying that much for a high class pussy her daddy had better be rich.

@ howsmydriving

They’re thinking “oh my life is so good” as they drive to the dealership to have yet another problem fixed.

And if passed by a Corvette they’re probably thinking “I wonder if it’s more reliable that the POS I’m driving now.”

“Why you would buy it: You are a fan of Aston Martin designer Ian Callum, and would like beautiful design, and a “near-Aston” look at a THIRD TO A QUARTER OF THE PRICE.” The ONLY Aston that is nearly as expensive as this review portrays them to be would be the DBS which is 10 times the vehicle this car could ever be. You can get a V8 Vantage for 130K.

P.S. Yes Corvette is a better buy but these are two different clienteles. Jaguar owners are probably pleased to let Corvettes pass them, while thinking to themselves, “another Corvette low life.”

Exactly: Jaguar renders Aston Martins redundant.

This car is amazing. Fast, great-handling, well-built, and gorgeous. I love it.
