I can't believe Top gear was so hard on the XF, those old fuddy dudies are very spoiled, I can't watch that show anymore, it's the personalities of the hosts that just **** you off with their snooty attitude. I found it a bit odd that when they compared the Limited with the 350Z they didn't even show or compare the Z with the SRT6 which is closer comparison HP wise.
There must be a bit of distaste at the Chrysler name from the 70's - 90's that causes such bad reviews, because they never really go into detail or do and apple to apple comparison. I give up...
TG was a little warmer on its review of the SRT6
