Model OverviewBoth XKs and XKRs come in a coupe or convertible.Constructed mostly of aluminum, the 2010 Jaguar XK and XKR both feature good road feel and exceptional handling. The all-new 5.0L V8 engine is refined and powerful, and is mated to a 6-speed sequential transmission operated by the JaguarDrive rotary gear selector, which rises out of the console upon engine start-up, and features steering wheel paddle shifters. Underneath, the eCATS system actively adjusts the suspension to keep the ride smooth yet sporty. Traction control and dynamic stability control are standard, as is an active exhaust system, and the roomy interior is even stocked with a standard DVD-based navigation system. The 4-model lineup includes the normally-aspirated V8 XK coupe and convertible and their rakish alter egos, the supercharged XKRs.Jaguar aimed for a thoroughbred sports car with the XK and XKRs and succeeded. The chassis has many aluminum components helping the convertibles remain stiff enough to handle as respectable sports cars. The transmission, with three settings, can be made to ride luxury smooth or razor sharp depending on the driver's mood.Luxury is Jaguar's signature, and both XK and XKR come very well-appointed. On the XK, plenty of leather, aluminum and a number of veneer trim choices make for a classy interior. A heated wheel is now standard, as are 16-way heated and cooled power seats, keyless entry with remote start, leather-covered dash, bi-Xenon automatically leveling headlights, DVD-based navigation with touchscreen climate controls and stereo controls, Bowers & Wilkins 525-watt premium surround sound stereo and LED tail lamps. An available Advanced Technology Package adds adaptive cruise control and active front lighting. 19-inch wheels are standard on both the XK and XKR, with 20-inch wheels optional.The XKR gets all the same features as the XK, but adds the supercharged 510-hp engine, larger brakes, special wheels, special exterior and interior styling, adaptive cruise control and several unique interior color/veneer combinations.The convertible soft top operates via a single button and neatly stows under an aluminum tonneau cover. It also features a heated glass rear window. When the top is down the occupants are protected in the event of a rollover by roll bars that pop up behind the seats.All models come with a 4-year/50,000 mile basic warranty and a 6-year/ unlimited mile corrosion warranty.In my experience this would be a 10 on a scale of 10 for a touring car. It has the comfort, quietness, power and style that cannot be duplicated easily at five times the price. In the mountains, curved roads it sings. It's the right year, right color, right condition and best priced car on the road. It will cruise at any speed you feel capable and deliver in excess of 22 mph doing so. It is a classic not to be seen again with this interior and the coach work.......it is just a perfect car 2010 Jaguar XKR Coupe4 Year 70,000 Mile Extended Warranty Ebony Exterior over Caramel Leather Interior **NAVIGATION!

Jay Leno's Garage drives Steve McQueen's 1956 Jaguar XKSS

Tue, 27 May 2014

Steve McQueen might be the coolest American male of the 20th century. With movies like Bullitt and Le Mans, McQueen established himself as the king of cool of his era, and on the list of actors you would pick for a fantasy racing team - he or Paul Newman are the natural first choices. The latest Jay Leno's Garage video highlights one of McQueen's most special cars - a 1956 Jaguar XKSS.
Just 16 XKSS models were made because a fire at the Jaguar factory halted production. It was meant to be a street version of the company's very successful D-Type racer, with a modified version of its 3.4-liter straight-six-engine and a four-speed manual gearbox. McQueen clearly had an eye for great vehicles. He drove his Jag around Los Angeles years after it was a cutting-edge piece of technology. Since then, it became part of the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA. Autoblog's The List even took a ride in it when the show visited the museum.
The XKSS is one of the pinnacles of automotive design of the '50s, and its association with McQueen makes this example even more extraordinary. Leno is in love with the car from the moment he sees it, and it's hard to argue with him. Between its emphasized curves and raspy exhaust, this is one sexy Jag. Scroll down to get an eyeful and earful from one of McQueen's favorite cars.

Jaguar readying a pop-top F-Type Coupe? [w/poll]

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

Typically convertibles are spun off of coupes, but sometimes it goes the other way. Like the Porsche Cayman that was based on the Boxster, the Lotus Exige spun off of the Elise, and the Jaguar F-Type, which arrived as a roadster before the coupe debuted. But if the latest reports are to be believed, Jaguar could be planning something in between.
According to Auto Express (which has, mind you, been known to stretch the rumors out some), Jaguar is toying with the idea of offering a partial convertible version of the F-Type - something Porsche would call a Targa (and which we would too if Stuttgart weren't so litigiously protective of the name). The additional roof configuration would give the F-Type three body-styles, giving its customers more choices.
It wouldn't be the only sports car to offer three roof options: There's the Porsche 911, of course. Ferrari once offered GTB, GTS and Spider versions of the 348 and 355. The Chevy Corvette has been offered in all three forms, as was the Pontiac Solstice many moons ago. But that kind of variety in roof configurations has become scarce. Jaguar's decision reportedly depends on whether it can make the business case or not. Do you think there'd be enough demand for a lift-roof F-Type?

Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine

Sat, 08 Feb 2014

European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
