OK - I took your advice. And she tells me that I am indeed predictable and boring

My Ride: 2006 550i SMG
I have never been a fan of the XJ styling no matter what the ratings are. On the other hand I have been meaning to go see in person and drive their new Supercharged XF...now that's Jaguar thinking outside of their normal design box. You gotta love the styling, 420Hp/413.lbTQ, and base price starting at $62K 
(ur..unless someone proves to me it's just a rebodied and re-engined Ford Fusion!)

My Ride: 2006 530xi. alpine white, black leather, 6 speed. mtech kit.
ok...lets look at it this way
should i buy a ford (jag) that is "somewhat better than BMW in both actual and predicted reliability..." or should i shell out some more money and buy a BMW....hmmmmmmmm tough choice!!!!
brand names will always matter!!!!

And yes, reliability is important.
