    You have to see this thing in person and drive it to fully appreciate it. Its incredibly handsome and has an incredible amount of presence. The interior is also spectacular.

    This is by far one of the best POV videos I have seen! You can clearly see out in front of you, and it wasn't shaky. I do agree with seinsmeld13 though, it feels empty without the commentary. Just my 2 cents.

    The interior looks great, and I love the instruments' backlight movement, but...
    Exterior fit and finish look poor for a machine in this class. Mismatched corners, uneven cut line gaps, and orange peel in the paint you can see in a video. Where is the attention to detail?

  • @fomavictorevitch
    @fomavictorevitch Před 11 lety

    I am considering an XJL Ultimate as a limo for my office, and will be trying one out in Paris very soon. I find your road test to be frankly ridiculous, these silly "accelerations" to 60mph are totally pointless. If you do a road test, get on a serious road accelerate to 120mph, then get into some long curves and a mountain road.and show us what this thing will do. You could also compare it to a S63 or an A7L.
