No point comparing this XFR to the F10 M5, the E60 is its contemporary. As one who has owned both an E60 and (now) an XF (but only the Diesel S :-() the XF is a far better dynamic machine, i.e. it's better to actually drive! And even the XF Diesel S has 60lb/ft more torque than the M5, the XFR has 80lb/ft more. In real driving, it's mid-range torque that drives the car. I tried a BMW 5, a 5GT and a 7 before buying the XF. As a driver's car, the XF is just in a higher league, and because it's the Portfolio, it's better equipped too. And let's be honest, above 150mph performance is just bragging rights in the pub, unless your commute is round the Nurburgring.

Looking back on Top Gear's review of this car, James May would agree that the XF/Supercharged is better than the regular E60, but Clarkson gave the M5 the slight edge over the XFR *on the track,* despite the torque deficit. (The Bimmer posted faster lap times than the Jag, and offers a more visceral track day experience.) Both agree, however, that the XF/R drives better on the road.

A performance saloon isn't just about numbers, 0-60 means nothing, its just a guide. The BMW has a harder edge than the Jag, does that make it better? I would say no, others would disagree. Jaguar and BMW have a different approach to a fast saloon, they are not the same car. This difference means BOTH cars will sell well, but to different people. Jag has done a fine job with limited resourses. Can we leave it at that, PLEASE? you too, Luke.

You do have a problem, most of us can see that. You and I have both seen this Jaguar lose by a small margin to what some think is a lightly modified M5, the Jag was gaining ground up to about 150, which is better than I expected because like you I had seen the tests on these cars and if we believe them the BMW should have wiped the floor with the Jag, but it didn't. In the real world, Jags often out do the roadtest figures and it seems the XFR on the other video is just such a car.

Also in 2 or 3 years when Jaguar can afford it it will bring a new aluminium XF out and transmission to handle more power, then we'll see, but for now this car is easily good enough and ofcourse more important, its not a prats car.

@AnAngryPossom Thats a popular misconception. Jaguar designed the Jag V8 - not FORD (Ford DID provide much needed funding at the time): "The Jaguar company introduced the new AJ26 V8 engine in 1996. It has been developed and updated since, and appears in the S-Type and later vehicles from Jaguar. This V8 was used in some of Ford's Premier Automotive Group Jaguar and Land Rover brands.

Ever since Ford left Jaguar in a state the only way to go was up. The XF and all its variantswill hopefully make everybody forget the S-Type and X-Mondeo (see what I did there). My E55 will be going in the new year and I am sniffing around the XF V8 range. Ihave no qualms about reliability as that is an issue with any car of any calibre within the high performance bracket. P.S my Holden Monaro is up for sale too. Maybe one of you Yanks can buy it and say it's really a Pontiac.

What I love about the BMW noobs is how they critisise the first of the real BMW M5 competition from Jag! This is Jag's first of the new AJ GEN III engined car's, it's taken BMW from 2003 (the new M5) to now to make it that good. Yes it's a great car but lets see the XFR in 6 years of tunning and tweaking, playing around... Anyone remember the original idrive? BMW fanboys get over it, the Jag desiel beats BMW D, the XKR, beats BMWs M6 and the XFR is a better luxuary car than the M5...

What difference does it make when it comes to shifting? You're still just pressing on paddles. mrjost55 was probably saying that automatics take the fun out of driving, but that is only if you have no influence over the shifting. Sure, the XFR might have a different transmission than an Enzo, but it's just as fun. So, criticizing the XFR's transmission is basically like criticizing every flappy-paddle gearbox out there, which includes a lot of high-performance cars.

@bobrec3GTI Uhh, smart one an M5 is WAY more expensive as you start adding options that are STANDARD on the XFR. And BMWs don't have better than the NEW Jaguars, the M5 isn't focused around luxury, it's made more twards speed and that can be seen on the M3/1 series. BMWs actually do worse in reliability tests than newer Jags.
