my dad has had a few xjrs, and 740s and he liked the jag better, its a quick car, the 740 has a better interior and drives easier. the best car for that price range is a used audi S8 its the sport model, and drives very well, my dads friend has one and its a sedan i really dont mind driving. i usually hate big cars because theres no such thing as a SPORT SEDAN even an m5 and the new e55 and s55 are too big to be sports cars. the only sedan thats a sports car is the c32 amg from mercedes, but it lacks a manual tranny....the only way i would want my car if i only had 1 car. but some dont like stick, and then i would say go for the c32, its fast and a sleeper, go less attention from cops.
