Hardcore - Jaguar XKR-S GT !
by AllAutoExperts | 26 March, 2013
The Jaguar XKR-S GT gets no changes regarding the 5.0 liters V8 gasoline engine, but gets an aerodynamic kit that will provide a maximum downforce of 145 kg.
The 550 HP/680 Nm Coupe comes with some carbon fiber elements for the exterior, a front bumper splitter, a diffuser in the rear bumper and a spoiler on the trunk lid. While the coupe has the same top speed as the XKR-S standard model (280 kmph, electronically limited), the sprint from 0 to 100 kmph is possible in just 3.9 seconds, compared to 4.2 seconds.
The Jaguar`s XKR GT-S suspension was also modified in order to provide better stability. Stylistically speaking the surprise is the 20 inch rims covered with Pirelli Corsa tires, developed specifically for this Jaguar XKR-S version. The car will have only 30 copies (which makes it automatically the rarest model R in the 25 years history of the Jaguar performance division), all of which will be available for sale only on the North America market.
