Spy Shots: Jaguar XF-R

cdoke submitted on 5/20/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 5:15:48 PM

So how will the Jag XF-R be distinguished from lesser XFs? Where to begin? The XF-R has a noticeably different snout, as witnessed by the larger air intakes and bonnet scoops, but the rest of the front of the car is admirably restrained.

Rendered speculation: Alfa Romeo 169

cdoke submitted on 1/3/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 4:03:40 PM

With the Alfa Junior hatch gearing up for production, the 8C Competizione being delivered to customers and the 159, Brera and Spider gorgeous-ing up roads around the world, the next item on Alfa Romeo's plate is the 169, its upcoming flagship sedan.
