From the dig...to 60...I got 'em...he couldn't catch me...but after that I certainly couldn't leave him!

From 25 or 30...very even...I dare to say he might have even been inching(but only inching) away from me...

That Jag sounds great...what noise!

The XFR looks nice (as do other Jag's), but in the end it's just a Jag. Would definitely be interested in seeing a CLS/E-63 M157 w/ PP vs. XFR-S

man oh man!
I've been a big admirer of Jaguar since I was a kid....
and when I was ready to buy brand new, the new Jaguars did not
appeal to me in the least! and even to this day I have not seen one
I'd want to have in my small collection....
and to even GET as much stock HP in a Jaguar you'd have to drop over 130K!!
and still only get two doors.....lol

I admit the higher performing XF'sR/XKR's are okay.......but expensive for what you get in return......and the whole style refresh thing has really turned me off completely from the brand.....

glad you had some fun with the guy though

I agree, the new models are pretty damn good looking and the RS model will be quite fast too.
