Jaguar is unveiling a nice ‘sublime’ green version of its uber coupe, the XKR at the famed Goodwood Festival of Speed to be held next month. The car is a limited edition XKR in dark Strathus Grey and is essentially a limited edition since Jags planning only 75 of it.
The car will feature a much improved drive train and mechanicals to retain the sporty touch. The engine’s a retuned version of the XKR’s 5.0L supercharged V8 putting out 522 BHP. The transmission is recalibrated to handle the extra power and the torque converter is developed to be err, strong. The car shall feature a beefed up exhaust system with a cross pipe and a larger outlet port for the aural and visual effects.
The dampers and springs are also recalibrated for added stiffness with aluminium parts. The car is expected to retail at around $128,000 and with a nice body kit for added aerodynamic efficiency, expect the car to be juicier!
