TCC’s Bottom Line
Raising pulses and generating sheer envy: it's all in a day's work for the gorgeous, sublime Jaguar XK. Earthy exhaust tones and serene handling carve out a distinctive niche for the fabulous Maserati GranTurismo. The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL Class toughens up its image and its handling, but still feels more content as a grand touring grand dame.
