Light Front, Runs and Drives, Good Airbags., , The XF has exterior styling that some people love and some people dont, and that usually translates to above-average sales. The front end doesnt knock me out; it recalls a 2006 Chrysler Sebring after a makeover, but thats completely subjective, of course. My greater concern is over the grille, which is something I harped on in my XK review, too. This is a more affordable car, but I still dont think that excuses the cheap-looking chromed plastic grate. I find it offensive. In fairness, the grille on Bentleys Continental GT is just as bad at more than three times the price, but thats just thrice the shame on Bentley. Ive also seen much better plastic grilles on more modest cars from non-luxury brands.
