TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2015 Jaguar F-Type piles on even more sportscar credibility with a ravishing Coupe R edition. While the glorious new F-type sports car might have stolen some of the limelight, the 2015 Jaguar XK lineup remains one of the most gorgeous and desirable grand-touring cars on the market. The 2015 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is sportier than its predecessor, but still manages to coddle its occupants just as before.
