Jaguar XJ

Made for another photoshop competitionto guess at the new XJ's looks before it was unveiled.

I tried to ape the spy photos as much as I could. Unfortunetly the teaser image threw me (I'm quite sure I won't like this weird new roofline with the rear window morphing into the side windows but not at the same time).

So anyway I stuck with what I saw under the camo. Nothing extreme - hope it's not too boring. But from the spy photos I'm not sure the new XJ will be the looker the XF is.

Basically I grafted an XF nose onto a Quattroporte (specificially the Touring version made by some coachworks company I can't remember at the moment). I spliced together the Jag and Quattroporte rooflines, and also shortened the roof get more of a big Jag stance. I also lowered it to the ground - the Quattroporte had a bit of a 4x4 stance. Up front I reshaped the headlights, and made the grille much wider and more upright. I also enlarged the central air intake on the bottom of the front bumper. I brought it up so it matched the height of the two that flank it. I also added more of a booty onto the end of the car.
