They're different than a similarly priced Porsche. More muscle, less razor sharpness, still fun.

BTW, Jag didn't really make their name in racing.. sure they used a racey engine in the road cars, but what really made them was cheap performance. In their day, Jags were the fastest affordable sports cars. Even the stodgy looking MkII had a stonking I6 under the bonnet and could be modded into a decent touring car racer. Luxury and verve, they were more like the 90s BMW M cars than racers.
