Is Jaguar X-type is a entry level luxuary car as Mercedes C-Class in U.S.A? Does it has the same prestige ?

Considering that your question implies that the Mercedes C-Class is an entry level luxury car (which I would agree that it is) I would actually say the X-type has more prestige. Granted the X-type is not an XJ8 and therefore will never garner the same respect. But still in all it is a Jag. Let me tell you a little story about the respect of a Jag over a Mercedes. This is a true story. A few years back I purchased a C-class Mercedes that was in impeccable condition and I was very proud of it. It was snow white with camel interior. A striking combination. Everyone that saw it agreed that it was a beautiful car. However, I had one person tell me "that is a beautiful Toyota"...OMG they called it a TOYOTA..then another person said "I love your new Chrysler"...then another one said "what is that? The new Toyota?" After those comments my pride in my new "luxury" car was battered. I ran across a 1996 Jaguar XJ6 I'd never owned a Jag but always loved the classic lines. I bought it and fell in love. I never once pulled up to a place where someone mistook it for anything but a Jaguar. I had strangers stop me and say how they wished they had a Jag. I never had that happen in any BMW or Mercedes I ever owned. Today I own a pristine 90 Jaguar XJS and a Beautiful low mileage '83 380SL Mercedes. And guess which car gets all the questions.... Nothing says prestige like that long low stance with the chrome Jaguar leaping from the leading edge of the hood guiding your way. Go for the X-type and let the haters hate. If you want to learn more about Jaguars than you ever thought possible go to http://www.jag-lovers.org/modern/x-type/ you'll find people who will encourage and guide you on your purchase and give you insight to a great marque. Good luck and enjoy that Jag!

Not really a true luxury car in the US. The X-type is just like buying an expensive Honda. Mostly you see wanna be rappers driving them. I've never once seen someone who commands respect driving an X-type here in the LA area. Mostly, it's kids with a shaved head and all the windows rolled down. It's quite laughable, actually.
