Bottom Line	The 2010 Jaguar XF betters its class-leading rating at TheCarConnection.com with a sizzling XFR edition.	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.	If you appreciate luxury and complex engineering solutions, then you'll love the 2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
