2002 4dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.0L I6
5-speed manual RWD		 BMW drivers are universally despised. Just Google "BMW drivers" to see what I mean. They are thought to have almost malicious disregard for anyone but themselves, as well as for any traffic laws. see full BMW 5-Series review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Brand Reputation of the Jaguar XF

Jaguar XF Brand Reputation: Pros
YearComment
2016 Unlike, say, Hyundai, Jaguar isn't new to top-shelf luxury sedans. Founded by Sir William Lyons, they've been building desirable high-end automobiles since before the second world war, and in the quarter-century after the war created some strikingly beautiful, cleverly engineered sports cars and sedans. The "leaper" badge might yet lack a reputation for reliabilty (they've been turning that corner since at least the 1970s), but it doesn't lack for a storied history or the attendant status. Plus not everyone has one. If you want a prestigious yet not hyper-expensive car that many of your friends don't already have, a Jaguar could be the way to go. see full Jaguar XF review
