CGI like whoa.
No way that they could've captured that last picture with everyone else all blurry and the car perfectly focused.

Nice to see the new XK in such an eyecatching color. Though IMO a deep Pearl Yellow like on the Lambo's would have been better. Those wheels are damn nice too!!

I just love this car.

Car looks good though.

If yellow is so " feminine ", then why are so many muscle cars, sports cars, sport-package trucks, and exotics painted that color? I myself, as you know, don't believe in stereotypes, but it is a fact that many people consider these types of cars to be " macho " or " masculine ".

They just used the correct F-Stop and focusing. What is so hard to believe?

that is called a panning shot.

modern SLRS can focus fast enough to keep up with moving objects, even at great speed.

I like the new XK, but hate the chicken wire all over the face of the XKR. And it doesn't get much better when you paint it in an in-your-face pastel yellow color. Not feeling it. But I do love those wheels.
