XF Sportbrake Dead in the States, So Show Off Your Pics!
Just posted about this for the front page, and will link when it's live. Roadshow, got the confirmation from Jag: ""We will no longer be offering the XF Sportbrake in the US."
UPDATE: Here's a link to the post.
Sad news. So it would be awesome to see some pics of members' rides — looks like you have a rare Kitty on your hands!

Sad news indeed. They were already rare -- even more so now. When I bought mine a little over a year ago, I was told by the owner of the dealer that it was 1 of 4 in my color combo for that year -- 1 sent to each corner of the US. I guess I have the Northeast. The same spec (although not mine specifically) was used in the 2018 Car and Driver review. The epitome of Grace Pace and Space.

I knew there weren't many sold but I had no idea it was only 250 in the 3 years.

Here's mine, I plan to hold onto it forever, still have never met anyone in-person who knew they existed, I guess that will be the case even more so now

I don't know, but, there is something wrong with Jaguar's inner circle in the marketing dept. For some reason it is not in par with the aggressive marketing strategy/tactics/campaign/technique/approach or what ever you might call it by it's American, German, Japanese & Korean counterparts. Sportbrake is a beautiful stylish vehicle in it's class that only a few people in the world knew it existed. So sad! Jaguar wake up!

I've just read that there were only 99 Sportbrake sold in the USA...! Can that be true?

Have any of you Sportbrake owners ever owned or driven an E400 or E450 wagon? I have experience with that model and was just wondering how you would compare them. Obviously the Jag is far more beautiful and, in my head at least, more engaging to drive. The Mercs are smooth and comfortable but not particularly fun or sporty. Thoughts? Beautiful photos btw, thanks for sharing!
