Bottom Line	The 2009 Jaguar XF is an easy car to love. It performs as well as anything in the class--and has unexpected glamorous touches that will win over converts.	The 5-Series sedans and wagons aren't the most practical or the best values in their class, but they're very enjoyable to drive.
Likes & Dislikes	Likes: Avant-garde shape (for Jaguar, that is) Aston-like taillamps Comfortable cockpit High-tech, high-style dash Steamy performance with the Supercharged edition Fuel economy, for the class. Dislikes: Shape may be a little derivative Rear seats are tight for adults No V-6 or all-wheel-drive options.	Likes: Handles like a smaller car, but has big-car stability on the highway Velvety, responsive engines Manual transmissions offered across the line Powertrains quite efficient in real-world driving Wide range of useful technology options Dislikes: iDrive remains unduly complex Back-seat isn’t as roomy as it should be Ridiculously high sticker price when extensively optioned Crash-test performance is an embarrassment
