Okay, I clicked on that link thinking I was going to come right back and flame you for saying you like it and here I am with my foot in my mouth. That just looks amazing. I have to say. Bravo!
BUT!! It's not out yet, and but the concept-like looks I wouldn't hold my breath.

They are going to try and retain the overall body lines etc. for the production model according to most sources, but of course it will not be exactly like the concept. This car is supposed to save Jaguar even though some of the purists will be pissed. If it looks like this in person I may have to consider one. The production rear end will be better hopefully though. That rear window is well ....WOW. The hood, etc is so badass. I hope they dont make the production version weak.

The rear door windows look extremly Aston Martin-ish in their shape. Certainly a good choice of design to emulate! (I know Aston and Jag are all part of the Ford group.)

Jaguar will be out of business before that car can be made.

I think the rear looks stupid. It reminds me of mercury automobiles. IMO.

From one angle, the one showing the rear towards the camera and rear quart. panel- reminds me of an elongated Lexus is350 with Civic tail lights!
Looks ok though. The CLS, in my opinion, is a more classic shape/design.

it's a concept - design is too radical. once this is in production they will manage to f*** it up somehow. It looks nothing like a jag, so maybe that's a good thing. here comes another lincoln MKS
