Default Re: Jaguar C-X16 - Closer to production pics?

That is something I would give my leftie for ..... have always admired Jags .... that is just so right.

Do a search on XJ13, this is what a real Jaguar looks like, Jaguar should have used the XJ13 as a base and modernised it - that would be WOW.
Like every 2 door out in the market which has borrowed something from everyone .... always been the way and near on impossible not to. Even the Bugatti reminds of some other cars. From 4 wheels at the front, lights at the front, 2 seats behind a steering wheel, hard not to do something that is 100% original. It does look fresh, fast and Jaguarish.

The thing I like about it compared to some of the other efforts from them in the past ...... I look at the rear and for some reason it screams E type .... modestly, most probably because of the slant? but it is there ..... very cleverly done.
