Jaguar XF. I knew it looked like another car out there but now I know it's the AM.
Shame on Jaguar for copying it.

Default that makes it worse...I would expect more creativity from a so called designer of that caliber...

don't get me wrong, the car looks really nice in person. It would be flattering if someone else copied it.

Did he run out of ideas? How unfortunate he couldn't come up with something else.

Default he and julian thompson *directed* the design..

someone below penned it, someone above approved it, everyone gets to be a middleman at some point in the process. You know there were hundreds of ideas that didn't make the cut.

When the Jag was released at Frankfurt last year, designer comments [negatively] compared it with Lexus rather than the Aston on the stand next door.

I don't think he ran out of ideas, I think he only ever had one good idea
