Jaguar's XJ - lie in ads

[Todd Phenneger]

As were all the Early Land Rovers.  All aluminum Bodies. But the
NSX uses much MORE aluminum than just Body Panels.  Much of its
structure and suspension was aluminum as well.  I think thats
their point.  But it was a poor choice of works to say "aluminum
Bodied".
