Damn Even Jaguar gets a manual transmission
This may be old news, but I was reading Design News magazine at work today and there is a small article on the new Jags and it says they will be getting a 5-Speed manual.
Supposedly, this is the first manual in a Jag (besides the exotics) in many, many years.
The new X-Type will have a 3.0-liter V6 and all wheel drive as well.
It is suppose to compete with the BMW 3-Series, Mercedes C-Class, Audi A4 and Volvo S60.
Everyone always says that Acura will not go with a manual because it is a Luxury vehicle.
So how is the Jag classified?
