What vehicle will be a worthy replacement for your sedan when it is time?

^^Recall, it was a broken kia (optima sx 2011 that wouldn't drive straight) that got me into the G in the first place. Will they be having engine recalls with this one too.... Or have they learned their lesson.

I'll admit there are times I'd like to have a station wagon... If I had to take the neighbors' kids to school or shop for the wife, get some lawn supplies at the Home Depot... maybe. :-) But, not when I'm driving Big Sur. There, I'd rather drive what the author calls unimaginative, boring three-box designs. :-) A nice four door sedan like a G37, Q50 or even a four door Maserati. My humble opinion, of course.

But I do like the look of this Jaguar XE SV Project 8. Much more aggressive.

I will say for me the XE checks all the aesthetic boxes. Drove one 6 months ago. Only issue for me was it needed better brakes I think. Seats were also a little less bolstered.

I left Jag thinking that I already own the better car.

I was expecting a Sedan-like interpretation of the F-Type in the XE, and was hugely disappointed. The XE is just a bread & butter sedan, whereas the F-Type is special.
You could also argue, how can I be impressed with the Stinger, but unimpressed with the XE? That's because the Stinger is punching up with something new and unique, whereas the XE is punching down with a basic design.
