Jaguar Wild Child XE From SVO
Take a look at this. In late June Jaguar will introduce a new special edition of the XE sport sedan. It will include the highest tuned 5.0L engine.

Funnily enough, I really like the XE interior - much more than the C class and the A4 and the lexus. A lot of people/reviewers were disappointed with it but I liked its simplicity because I find the smaller cars look too fussy when they attempt grand interiors.
It isnt perfect - the driver's side vent blows cold air on your fingers, and I find the doors (with the riva bow continuation) a little odd and unnatural, but apart from that (and that the home button on the screen is on the passenger side so you have to stretch to use it) it is really functional.
My favorite interior though was my first XF - premium luxury, ivory and oyster with walnut. I usually loathe walnut but this was subtle and the combination perfect. I have seen audi try similar in an A8, it was jarring and cheap.

Will this have the desirability like the Project 7? Even if priced at $100K, will it hold the price solely on exclusivity and the "most powerful engine yet" advertising? Dealer says put down $20K and we will petition with Jag to let us get one for you. Not sure what I want from this car yet - seems all over the place to me. Entry level Jag with most powerful engine and extremely limited production run.
Would a simple XE-R have done the trick?

How do you amortize a $4million ad campaign on 300 units.
Which ironically was always Jaguar's former gripe, they had to factor more per car on ad cost than anyone else, due to low volume and very limited model line. Its really a miracle they survived.
Lexus is worse, they did not need to advertise the LFA-let alone produce it, they lost more per car than they sold it for-but sold a ton of 4-bangers off it.
