Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the Jaguar XK to the dealership as the average convertible. Producing an exact gas mileage evaluation is so tricky that some think not even the federal government can do it, but it looks as though both the average convertible and the average convertible perform about similarly with respect to fuel economy. With respect to gas mileage, the average convertible is a bit better than the XK, but not by much. In terms of MSRP, the Jaguar XK costs tremendously more than the average convertible.

Utility
The XK will definitely prove handier than the average convertible for those of you with frequent child-cargo.

Convenience
The average convertible's fuel tank will need to be replenished slightly more often than the unit in the Jaguar XK.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the average convertible offers a bit more head room than the Jaguar XK, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The average convertible offers more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Jaguar XK does.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the XK than the average convertible because of its bigger tank. The typical convertible and the Jaguar XK compete for the same parking spaces.

Handling
With their comparable turning circles, the Jaguar XK and the average convertible likely handle roughly the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Jaguar XK has a more massive engine than the average convertible. Note that smaller engines typically get better gas mileage, but smaller engines can be stressed more. Torque equals pickup, and the Jaguar XK will have picked up and gone by the time the typical convertible finally gets moving.

Warranty
The basic after-sale protection that comes with the average convertible isn't quite as generous as the Jaguar XK's.
