Jaguar currently sells three models in the United States—the XF, XJ, and XK (pictured above). Soon, the British automaker will introduce its F-Type sports car to the mix. Intended to succeed Jaguar’s E-Type, which is generally considered to be one of the most iconic sports cars of the 1960’s, the F-Type will start at $69,000. While that price would put the F-Type near the top of a lot of other luxury automaker’s lineups, the upcoming sports car’s starting MSRP is higher than only the $46,975 starting MSRP of Jaguar’s entry-level XF sedan. With that in mind, it’s not surprising that Jaguar’s global brand director recently told Automotive News that the automaker is hoping to improve brand accessibility and boost sales with a return to the compact segment.

If you watch enough episodes of Jay Leno’s Garage, you begin to assume that the man wears two things—whatever the wardrobe manager on the Tonight Show puts him in and denim. Though he’s indeed wearing his signature jean-on-jean getup in the latest episode, he is not in fact in his garage. Instead, the TV personality and automotive enthusiast is in someone else’s garage—Brown’s Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona—to be precise. What’s he doing there? Well apart from looking fashion forward as always, Mr. Leno is getting up close and personal with the star of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show—the 7th Generation Chevy Corvette.
