Jaguar stole our car name: The XFR-S



Not going to lie, I'd probably get one if I had the money.

I saw one on vaca this week (f-type). It's 2nd in sex appeal to the e-type from them, but the exhasut note is one of the best exhausts I have ever heard

Yeah that 5 liter sc v8 sounds pretty nasty in all the Jag/LR stuff. $100k+ is a touch out of my price range though. I think id go for the V6s f type.

V6 F-Type handles better from what I've read. It's like the difference between SBC and BBC Corvettes from the 60s. The SBC Corvettes handled better, but had less powuhhh.

That what Jag was going for, the V6 sport for handling and the V8 a bit of a muscle car.

More like, Scion stole their name.

[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_XF"]Jaguar XF - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]

XF has been around for some time, including the XFR. The -S is a new model.
