Forester is a small SUV. The Outback is Subaru's tall wagon.

Just say NO to stretchy-vision!
Wow. What ever happened to Emmanuel Lewis?
But no one complains about Rolando?
Good: Singapore and Abu Dhabi are the only Tilke-designed courses on that list (...note I said 'designed' and not 'modified'... no reason the pedants need to get their panties in a bunch).
Oh man, I was hoping for "She-Hulk: Tale of Mermaids" that would be one awesome movie!
@BoxerFanatic: I was going to respond that you were off base, but then I discovered that you cut-n-pasted your first paragraph without researching it, so I'll just point out that $5595 in 1961 is equivalent to about $35,000 today (more than the Miata, I'll admit - that price is more in line with a Honda S2000). And the E Type was significantly better than the Corvette, Aston, etc. The E was the only production sports car at that time that could approach 150mph. In terms of bang for the buck, the E was unrivaled at that time. Jaguar hasn't had a car that fits that description since the E went out of production.

Heck, with modern suspension and brake components it's a blast to drive today. I'm not beating many people off the line but I have fun trying.
@EXP Jawa: Totally agree. "C-Type" should be off-limits for re-use (so should D-Type).
The problem that Jag has now, and has had for the past 20 years or so, is that they forgot that the reason the E was so successful is that it was CHEAP. Everyone seems to forget that. The E-Type was an inexpensive sports car that had category-beating performance. This car needs to be Miata priced with Z4 performance. As the owner of an E-Type, I've been dreaming of a modern incarnation for years but all these concept cars miss the point, which is cheap/performance/fun.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"With all the new multitouch capable monitors coming out, which one is the best? With the release of Windows 7 I really want a touchscreen monitor for my desktop. I'm looking to get a Full HD monitor that supports multitouch and can still look great during gaming and movies. Which one has the best specs for the price?"
