2012 Jaguar Test Drive – Jaguar has recently emerged from its darkest hours with a whole slew of newly redesigned luxury sports cars. The redesigned look gives the Jaguar a real sexy feel. But its not just the exterior where this car shines. Lurking under the hood of a few of the higher level trims is a supercharged 5.0 liter V-8 engine that produces 470 horsepower and 424 lb-ft. of torque. Those are some great numbers for a car costing less than $100k. But the base model 2012 Jaguar XJ is much cheaper at $73,700. The inside is nothing but ultra high luxury featuring top notch quality materials and a cool virtual gauge cluster. The XJ comes in both a regular wheelbase model and an extended wheelbase model called the XJL which is intended to battle the biggest from the likes of Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz.
