2011 Jaguar XK-R
The old Jaguar XK often received a bad rap as the old man’s sports car, but the redesigned XK, with added chrome grills and hood louvres gives the new car a far more sinister look. The XK coupe now sports a perfectly executed rear with more Italian design cues than a reworked E-type.
Inside the 2011 XKR the changes are largely limited to the removal of the J-gate shifter in favour of the hockey-puck style “JaguarDrive selector,” improved leather trim and the general feel of British style, perfectly executed.
New for the 2010 model is the 5.0 liter V8, throwing out a stomping 510bhp and 461lb-ft of torque which propels the car to 60mph from rest in 4.6 seconds. But it’s the rolling acceleration that feels so fun. Rather than a traffic light drag race, the car is infinitely more pleasing to stomp on and blow away your competition when they aren’t expecting it. The joy of mid range torque! And around town will still return 15+ mpg.
The car offered is of 2011 vintage, and has covered just about 10,000 miles from new. In a very unusual and striking “Salsa” red colour, the sinister look of the Jag has been enhanced with black coated wheels, badges and grills. The car looks superb! Paintwork is about as-new, 20” option wheels are scuff free and shod with good tires with plenty of tread remaining. Behind the wheels are red painted brake calipers.
The caramel interior is also about as near perfect as you can get. Highlighted with charcoal stitching, and burr walnut, the interior feels like a pleasing place to be. Light and airy, with a luxurious feel.
This one local California owner car feels like new. Barely broken in with the mileage, it is presented in excellent condition throughout. Recently serviced to ready the car for sale, is testament to the car taken in maintaining and storing it. The reason for sale: a new addition to a growing family is on the way.
The engine is responsive, shifting perfectly through the 6-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel mounted paddle shifter. Brakes, suspension and steering all feel as taut as new, and all electrical systems work perfectly. The car is equipped with heated and cooled soft grain leather seats, a “smart key” for access and starting the car, fabulous B&W stereo system, iPod connectivity, bluetooth, Sirius, Bi-Xenon headlights and touchscreen Navigation. Total original cost: over $102,000.
The car is offered with all books and manuals, keys and service records, with a clean, clear title.

1964 Jaguar XKE slinks into Jay Leno's Garage
Wed, 07 Aug 2013The idea of altering a classic Jaguar E-Type might seem preposterous to some, but Jasen Len of XKs Unlimited managed to create a modified 1964 E-Type that stays true to the Jag's timeless design. Just a few months after Jay Leno featured his own original E-Type on Jay Leno's Garage, Len stopped by to show off his custom Jaguar creation.
Starting out with a rust-ravaged body, Len made the car just the way he wanted it to be. He started off with some minor changes to the car's exterior like the Le Mans-inspired racing lights and handmade front bumpers, handmade sills with integrated exhaust and flared rear fenders. Inside, he dropped the floor to make more interior space and reworked the E-Type's styling for more of a modern look. We have to say, if you're going to mess with a Series 1 E-Type, this is the way to do it.
Sadly, even though Len and Leno spend plenty of time talking about the car's 300-horsepower 3.8-liter inline six-cylinder, we never get to hear the car fire up. Check out the JLG video, which is posted below, and as a bonus, enjoy the gallery from Jaguar showing a 1961 E-Type.
Jaguar reveals upcoming XE's InControl infotainment system [w/video]
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Jaguar has been keeping busy lately, rolling out both the new Lightweight E-Type and F-Type Project 7 at Pebble Beach this past weekend. But the more important project for the British automaker is the upcoming new XE.
Coventry has been releasing a steady stream of information and teasers on its new 3 Series challenger, and has now revealed details of the new infotainment system that will debut in the XE. Called InControl, the system centers around an eight-inch touchscreen and integrates with smartphones (running both iOS and Android) through the InControl Remote and InControl Apps. The system will allow drivers to pre-set the climate control for each day of the week, lock and unlock the doors and start the engine remotely.
It'll also include an on-board wifi hotspot to connect multiple devices and a laser-based head-up display that you can scope out in the graphic above as well as the video and press release below in advance of the XE's upcoming debut in London on September 8.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
