    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    Its nice that Jag adds some more power, but the bodywork looks like some Russian kids found a plastic molding machine.

    542bhp and torque of 502lb ft producing a 0-60 times in 4.2 sec doesnt seem too impressiveSmiley.


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    Hmm... I actually like new XKR-S a lot. After few seconds of thinking I decided to order one.

     


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    Love the looks and I am sure it's fun to ride the torque wave -but depreciation ?

    I had 416ps 4.2 XKR coupe for 6 months and I was extremely happy with it. Depreciation? Indeed but, I can live with it. My plan is to have it for at least 3 years.

    It is on my current top 3 car list: Mercedes SLS AMG, Jaguar XKR-S and Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4.


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    This Jaguar looks like a tuner's work. It must also be very colour sensitive from what I can gather from the pictures. Wish it looked more classy like it befits the Jaguar name. Of course in real life it could be better looking

    Looks like Hamman was the tuner company choosed to make the body work, horrible.

    Looks like this could be a car that would really benefit from an all-black exterior color approach ;-)

    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    I love it, very nice touches to an already beautiful car. The performance is much better too..

    indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine..  I happen to like both :) 


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    I had a chance to drive the XKR and i was blown away!! sooo underrated


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    New pics

     


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    Front lights are much better,old ones were ruining the looks for me

    But this type of car,elegant gt coupe,just looks wrong with a bodykit

    Aston DBS and BMW 850CSi come to mind,they both look worse than normal versions to me

    That new Aston Virage is just right,agressive styling without being overdone

    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

     Reminds me of a Toyota Supra 


    Re: Jaguar XKR-S

    Could look nicer in a dark color...

    Well...where did I hear this before?

    The car looks like a musuem - just old. Inside it looks only for few moments nice- take a longer drive and you will see so many things which you will not like. For me never ever!
