Jaguar XFR-S...xFR-S...hmmm

Well, theres truly no real similarities to the sports saloon to our twins but it is quite a nice car.

I'm interested to see how it will do against its German rivals.

I must say that Jaguar in the past few years has been up to some pretty interesting stuff. I love the looks and sound of this car, but it's still going to be a little lackluster. Sure, the XFR-S will have 550 hp and 502 ft/lbs of torque, but it will still pale in comparison to cars like the Nissan GT-R, BMW M5, Mercedes C63 AMG, Cadillac CTS-V, and many more. Anyways, here's another fantastic video of the car. Enjoy!

They kept hyping this car to be "affordable for a younger generation" so I was thinking, "Finally, a 30-40k Jaguar!" Well, it turns out to be 50+ grand even for the basic inline 4 version. I'm not sure how many younger generation is able or willing to do that. So yeah, just another overpriced European car. Is it worth twice the price of an FR-S? I highly doubt it.
