(via potato) Still looks pretty good considering it was mostly designed in the late 90's. Pretty sure the designer was fired, or forced to retire right after the launch of it.

Agreed, love the lines.

I love these. They have a very clean and classy look, similar to German sedans of the '90's, and I'd love to find one of the earlier V6 models with a 5speed.

IMO they've aged very well for a basically 15-year-old design, and I believe they'll continue to do so, what with today's overwrought designs and all.

I've always like these. V6 or V8?

The manuals are rare and to me a little over rated. Many suffer from pcm problems.

Funny, these were considered bland and ugly at the time. There aren't too many other cars from that period that look as good as these do today.

It's like an S-type without the hood ornament, which is why it was so much cheaper :p

British reliability with none of the foreign swagger.
