	This week in Car Tech Wayne Cunningham CNET.com Jaguar's sleeper With the XK, Jaguar updated its 40-year-old style in a dramatic manner. But the XF, a four-door sedan, exhibits a more subtle character. From the side, a novice might mistake it for a Lexus. But that didn't stop Jaguar from giving the XF the R treatment, fitting its direct injection 5-liter V-8 with a supercharger and giving it a very active suspension. Stomp on the gas and this mundane four door roars, rocketing up to 60 mph in under 5 seconds.

I was able to hang fairly close to the Mazda's rear bumper as we snaked through the countryside, grinning all the way.
