Stuff: Jaguar CX-F Concept Car

200701051808 The car above is due to be unveiled at the Detroit Motor Show 07. It's the C-XF concept car from Jaguar - a four-door sports saloon which, according to the press release, will provide a clear indication of the design direction that the next generations of Jaguar saloons will take. It has been designed by the same teams that produced the Jaguar XK sports GT range in 2005 - headed by Jaguar Director of Design Ian Callum and Head of Advanced Design Julian Thomson. The press release reads:
C-XF has a taut beauty, but it is also a car that will challenge people's preconceptions about Jaguar; it has an edginess that exudes a sense of underlying menace... "The tonality has a functional aspect but also extreme beauty; mechanical designs that are fit for purpose are often beautifully designed - we've taken our inspiration from machinery as diverse as aircraft to cameras in seeking to make the car look like it was milled from a solid piece of metal."
