This is my second XKR. Before that I owned XK8's. This is the best one yet. An absolutely beautiful car and "tight" No squeeks over bumps - super solid. Everything about the car says "power"and it's so. The only additional feature I would wish for is an automatic tire pressure regulator. One last thought..the door handles are chrome - it would be nice if they were rubber coated. Here in Arizona after sitting in the sun they get hot, hot, hot.

Jaguar XKR

The most opulant interior I've seen in any auto. Timeless exterior styling. Everywhere I go, people take out their cameras and snap pictures. Incredible accelleration, unbelievable cornering (due to electronic suspension and traction control). Sophistocated integrated electronics have been very well thought out. This auto sets the standard for "high-performance" that no other auto can match.

I have never driven or owned a car that gets to the speeds as fast as my XKR does. I own 3 Jags (68 E, 90 XJS conv.) and the XKR is by far the fastest. As with all Jags, the looks are very sexy.

I just traded in a DRM 400 corvette to get the Jag going from a lifelong super car owner with a manuel trans into a six speed auto gave me some pause well the jag auto in combo with the supercharger leaves no doubt in my mind this is the way to go the car gets looks from every body and when you step on the gas it just takes off like a space shuttle it stays glued onto the road and feels like driving a rolex that goes 180 mph it is so solid quiet and smooth I love this car and will now always have one I will just trade it in every few years
