This is heavily camoed.  What do you think?

Doesn't seem like much will change from the overall shape.  Probably, it'll look alot like the concept car.

Assuming it looks like the coupe (which has been seen un-camoed) it will be very sexy.  :rockon:

This is more camouflaged...  B)



But, from what I can see, I like the Jag. Seems more "muscular" looking than the current model.

Trying to hide the design cues, that's what the camo's all about.

Oh.  I figured maybe it was some sort of weird design for the new car. lol

Nope, its probably there so that people who glance at it dont realize its a convertible right away.

Looks like it will be much more aggressive looking than the current car. Can someone posts some pics of the production coupe? I really hope they didn't screw up what I consider to be the best looking car for under 100k (the XK coupe, I don't care for the convertible).

I dont have pictures, but the concept to production car barely changed.  Changes are very minimal, such as moving the exhausts from the middle to both ends of the car.

Raza

Anyone else think it looks like they crossed an Aston Vanquish with a Subaru Legacy?

I'm not really seeing the Legacy. I'm think more Aston Martin and the new Mitsu Eclipse.

The eclipse is an ugly pig...this is a sexy car.  It does have the proportions of the DB9, which is a VERY good thing.

I see Legacy in the front fascia, especially the grille.

I only see Classic Jag with an Aston Martin profile.
