And for some real inside scoop, rent a car such as a 911 Turbo and race some of those prototypes and see what kinda performance would it have

It will be interesting to see if this helps Jaguar sales like it should. It certainly can't hurt.

It's kind of stupid that the Germans let other manufacturers use their Nurburgring and Autobahn.

How is it stupid? The Autobahn is a highway, they can't stop people from using it, and the ring is a race track that anyone can use, just pay the entrance fee and you can get in.

Why do you say that? Just like any other track its open to the general public (on certain days/times). And according to Richie (our International mod), part of it is still used as a toll-road.

These are SICK *** photos.
Why?
Because they aren't blurry and they are relatively high resolution.

Looks like the STI is running around. It's on the 5 door body. Dual twin pipes. Big wheels. Can't tell much else from that.

Those look like Jaguar rims (new XK??). Probably the new S-Type.. based on that concept car.. I forget the name.
