2010 jaguar xkr review - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

I think this guy likes the car just as much as I do. I shall see what happens when January rolls around. With second hand Astons going for 80 grand it's really kinda hard to justify 95k on a jaguar. I think the Jaguar is a better car but I will try and use this argument as leverage when I get my car.

Also the tan leather is the Aston is amazing.

Anyways great and funny review.

Other then is being really expensive the car is perfect.

This is what can happen when Ford owns Aston & Jaguar. It's a shame they still don't-

It's an incredible car on paper and on screen, I'll never be in one so I won't know for sure.

Very nice...my only complaint is this: Curb weight: 3865lbs (mfr) which I suspect would grow closer to 2 tons by the time we get them on the street. I just prefer something more nimble than that.

took ford selling the company to a real car company for this to happen. ford did some good things for them as far as bringing their production into the 21st century. but its thanks to little old indian that really saved jaguar.

car is heavy but you dont feel it. all exotic cars are pretty heavy though

Yeah I am really wanting to take that car for a drive. 4 door sports sedans aren't really my thing but I have driven the XFR and it was alot of fun. CTS-V it supposed to be even faster.

500+ ponies.. 0-60 in 3.9 seconds.... not bad at all.

Should be ill. It's basically a db9 for half the price. And it's faster. Win and win.

Yeah I think your right. I just need the planets to align so I can get one. Investing all my money over the next 4 month into 2 new buisnesses. Hoping they will grow fruit so I can treat myself to something cool.

Add the upgrade for 600+ hp to the jaguar and now I can chase my friends down in their lambos while wearing a bespoke suit.

It's a dream of mine HAHA
