The 2010 Jaguar XFR = Make Room For Jaggy.







"If you caught the third installment of our 2009 Detroit Auto Show preview earlier today, you already know that we were expecting to see the debut of the 2010 Jaguar XFR. Well thanks to some website we've never heard of, photos and details on the new Jaguar super sedan are now available.


As expected, it's powered by a new supercharged 5.0-liter V8. The slightly larger engine is rated to produce 510-horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque which puts it right up there with the BMW M5, Cadillac CTS-V and Mercedes-Benz E63, at least in terms of horsepower. Jag says it's enough power to get the XFR from 0-to-60 in 4.7-seconds while the top speed is electronically limited to 155mph.

Like most cars of its ilk, the Jaguar XF-R gets a revised front fascia, extended sills, a small decklid spoiler and quad exhaust tips. A set of 20-inch are standard as well. Interior upgrades are limited to new dashboard trim, sport seats and a sport steering wheel. Expect to see the Jaguar XFR in dealers this spring."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Making it's debut this week @ the 2009 North American Auto Show in Detroit, the Jaguar XFR (a superbly modified version of the Jaguar XF sedan), much like the previously featured Maserati Quattroporte (NOTE: The Maserati, however, costs approximately $50,000 more though), is yet another heavyweight contender in the fancy-schmancy world of high performance sports vehicles. Make no mistake, the Jaguar XFR is going directly @ the heads of the Audi RS6, BMW M5, Cadillac CTS-V and Mercedes-Benz E63 and any car enthusiast in that market.

Sitting lower than the XF, perched on stock 20-inch alloy wheels wrapped in speed rated rubber and running on a 5.0L supercharged V8 engine, this bad boy is not fucking around. I mean, if Y.O.U. could pull 60 MPH from a cold start in just 4.7 seconds, Y.O.U. might have an attitude too ... lol. What's good? Holla @ ya boy in BK!
