interesting side scoop detail and finishing. Not too bad but the rest does not jive with other details known or expected.

not sure what this would be other than another rendering. I would think the embargo font would be larger and bolder if real...

Thanks for sharing! Fune to pass the time...

Hub cap emblem, writing on fender insert.
I'd guess these clues refer to Jaguar, yet again that is a guess.

Do the headlights, door handle, rim design, side mirrors match the c8 mules?
None the less nice looking car.

That's a car I wouldn't mind owning. I'm willing to bet the C8 won't look as good but I hope it does.

Looks like someone photoshopped C8 rear vents onto the front of a Jaguar C-X75, along with a sort of C8 greenhouse and some 'Vette-style headlights:

Did you mean "embedded"?

Definitely looks like a Jaguar as others mentioned.

The wheels have Jaguar logos, the door has a trim piece that says Jaguar, the brake calipers say Jaguar...

Looks great, now if only Jaguar would sell it for $64,999 I'd be interested!

hmmmmm, looks like a Jag to me.

without having read any of the comments, just posted after looking at the pic, it seems that I am with the general consensus.

Perhaps this should/could be moved to "Other Cars" now.

I like the choice of Cray Spiders for wheels.

Definitely a Jaguar render, borrowing the nose, bumper bar, snout shape, and rear tailights from the F-Type. Current F-Type headlights lights are very similar to the C7, right down to the hockey stick halo DRLs.
