NiceDrivz Comparo: Aston Vantage V8 Roadster vs Jaguar XKR Convertible

This comparison might be called, "Separated After Birth". Ford used to own both brands; now a Middle Eastern group owns Aston and the Indian corporation Tata holds Jaguars reins. Once siblings with a common heritage, these two now go head to head as rivals. NiceDrivz's Isaac Bouchard renders his verdict.

Me too-as a 'one and only' convertible.

I'm thinking the same! The Aston is so beautiful, but the Jaguar (even with its current powerplant) is just so sublime to drive! Thanks!

he doesnt know jack shit about cars

Jag for me. Especially the '10 version with 510 bhp. Much more substance than the Vantage. I'd say the top competitor to the XKR would be the BMW M6 (I'd still take the Jag everytime).

i agree with "justlaxn32". This guy is telling us that Jaguar and Aston are rivals, hows that? They're all one company: Land Rover, Jaguar, and Aston Martin are all one one company. This guy needs to get his facts right. Plus, Jaguar falls under the category of Luxury, whereas Aston Martin is an Exotic Car. They aren't rivals whatsoever!
