We took the 2007 Jaguar XK for a road trip to Warsaw, Indiana of all places and found that Coventry’s two-door kitten is a pleasant cruiser for two. Even with only 300-hp under the bonnet this aluminum bodied touring car will do naught to 60 in 5.9 seconds.
We’re back with more news and less “ummms” in the second episode of the Automotive Trends Podcast.

The 2007 Chevrolet Corvette ZO6 tries to bend the laws of physics just a little with its seatback crushing 505-hp V8 cranking out 3.7 second sprints to 60mph and its face deforming 14″ front brake rotors bringing you back to steady state in 111-feet!
Jaguar finally gives us a 4-door cat with some claws! The Jaguar C-XF sport sedan concept debuted at the 2007 NAIAS. All in attendance immediately forgot about the S-Type.
