July 13 = New Jaguar Day!

Brian in the Jaguar F Type

Yes, TODAY, on Thursday July 13th 2017 you can log on to the Jaguar Facebook page at 3pm Eastern, Noon in California, and watch the unveiling of a new Jaguar! The NMS team members are big fans of Jaguars, so we're excited to see what this new Jaguar E Pace will be like. Of course, being normal people with normal jobs, we can't afford any shiny brand new Jaguars, but of course it's important to maintain your automotive research so that one can be a well informed consumer when one wins the lottery. Or finds a billion dollars on the ground. Or gets credit for the idea of "Chocolate Cheerios" ten years before the General Mills folks actually made them.

Jaguar is mostly known for building classic sports cars, but like most other makes they've expanded into the SUV business as well. If you're keeping score at home, that means that SUV buyers can now shop Jaguar, Porsche, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Mercedes, BMW, and tons of other builders like Ford, Chevy and Dodge. For many years the Ferrari folks have stated that they will never build an SUV, but who knows, they might just change their minds some day. One final tidbit about Jaguar, is that they are also combined in business with Land Rover, so maybe you should shop both Land Rover and Jaguar if you're in the market.

We don't have any Jaguars, but we have driven some of them at a Jaguar event that helped get us into auto crossing, so we kind of owe the Jaguar folks a big thank you for that! So, tune in Thursday to see the new Jag E Pace, which is their second SUV, along with the current F Pace. Here's the website: JAGUAR FACEBOOK
