i think it looks outstanding. Any US price estimates out yet? or even if it's coming to the US...I did read a couple hundred are being released in '08 for Europe only.

 I've never liked modern jags. They have absolutely no appeal. The classics, like the E-Type, have so much soul. This is just a Jag. |

Too lazy to read, what's the difference between XK-R and XK-RS?

Meh. Only thing I really like about it is the diffuser.

And those wheels are very un-Jaguar.

I think it looks great, this is what the XKR should have looked like to begin with...
The only thing I don't like it the spoiler, blah.

Sure the XK-R is great but there was room for improvement as reviews pointed out. I think the same applies to the XK-R-S. We were all expecting a more powerful, faster model to top the range, but they didnt give us it   Regarding design, wheels are stupid and take class away from the overall design. I wanted to see a new front bumper and wheels to seperate the car from the XK and XK-R. The only good thing is the rear diffuser, looks great! Spoiler looks good from all angles except that side-profile!
