Why 5-Stars? It's Jaguar.

'bought a 90k miles 2008 3.0/AT w/ Luxury Package for my wife in 3-months ago, 'like it so much that I just bought a 2007 3.0/AT base w/ 70k miles for myself! Having owned a 1964 S-Type 3.8, a couple XJ40 XJ6's, a couple of V12 XJS', and a 1995 XJR; I assure you that the X400/X-Type is every bit a Jaguar, less the "historically Jaguar" trait of being unreliable, dodgy quality control. The best thing that happened to Jaguar in the last 50-years was for Ford engineers to "correct" the issues that Jaguar either had no interest in, or were incapable of correcting.

Best car I've owned thus far

I like pretty much everything about this car. Owned 3 years and only problem has been a minor issue with the tire pressure sensors. If you don't mind paying for premium fuel and getting so-so mpg, I'd recommend giving it a look.
