I heard they're not making any cars this year. They just stopped production to sell their existing inventory or something. Sales are way down. It surprises me because they make Land Rover and people really like those.

That's exactly why Jaguar is stopping production. Their best selling cars in recent years have been the SUV models by a long way to the point where the saloons were barely selling at all anymore, but that means they are eating into Landrover's market share. They are rolling the dice with this move because the alternative is to give in and retire the brand.

Pretty sure you meant sedans, but now I really REALLY wanna drive a saloon. With the cowboy swinging doors and everything.

Saloon is British English for sedan. But don't let that stop you from putting swinging suicide doors on your sedan
