It didn’t take long for somebody to ruin the stylish lines of the new Jaguar XF and the latest atrocity comes to us from the guys at Galpin in California. Galpin is actually the biggest Jaguar dealer in the U.S. and has been offering a number of styling and performance mods for a range of its cars for years, which includes the likes of Aston Martin and Lincoln as well.

Their new kit for the XF consists of a number of styling mods including a two-tone paint scheme, 22in color-matched Forgiato wheels, blacked-out headlights, tinted glass and a matching two-tone color scheme for the leather interior.

It appears somebody forgot to tell the designers that Jaguars are all about tradition and British heritage, but then again it’s unlikely Galpin would have designed the car this way unless there was demand for it.

    WOW.....a perfect example of:

    JUST BECAUSE IT CAN BE MODIFIED DOESNT MEAN IT SHOULD BE MODIFIED.

    A terrible design exercise.

    There are a lot of people that are alive only because it's illegal to kill them.

    true...But :

    "alot of people have died that deserved to live,
    conversely,
    alot of people have lived that deserved to die"

    At least in this car there is a choice to not purchase it, and i would implore anyone not to...

    The difference between humanity versus material things isnt a viable argument though !! :-)

    I've bought a car from Galpin before, and if you knew where that dealership was, and specifically which specific group of people "Galpin Motorsports" tries to appeal to, you would understand.

    Think "pimp my ride" and you'll get there...

    i thought it was damage or in a garage for repairs. Is this thing going to be on Batman or is it just an individual thing, where you have to be different. If he or she can't decide on either red or black.
    I prefer BLACK.

    Looks just like two-tone Charger with 22"s parked near me.
    I think DUB is the word.

    Just when you thought this car could not get any uglier.....

    Honestly, the design DNA of this car is ugly.

    How can anyone say that this is really ugly. The design itself is the ugly part, not the paint job. But in a 2 tone paint job, I prefer blue and grey.

    Love the XF, Like to see "different"...... But not this time. I think the 2 tone made the car look cheap. Even pulled the Leaper off. Trying to make it look Japanese?

    Pretty great information.I would say there are very few cars that two tone paint looks good on. but the ones that do look good.
