What abt us ladies... Cant we drive this car? I just owned a E92 3 mths ago (RM275,000). A week after owning the car, I drove along the Bukit Bintang, saw a Black XF. I fell in love w the car straight away, rear view. The price is double the E92. Well, true as the Culprit said, still a lot of money out there. Just have to go grab it. This is my next toy.

First like someone mentioned, it's a hell of a lot less common than the 5series and E Class. Interior wise, it completely knocks the socks of BMW and Mercedes and perhaps equalling or even slightly surpassing (I'm a sucker for the handshake sequence) the A6. As or reliability, I remember that Jaguar comes tops coming only just behind Lexus, but much better than the Germans. I too was surprised by that fact, but it is comforting especially if you are in the market for one. I love the XF.
