Default if he said Cabrio.. he must've meant XKR

XJR stock is faster than S4 stock..

1998-2002: 0-60 5.2-5.4 1/4 in 13.6
370 hp

2003+: 0-60 5.0 1/4 in 13.4
390 hp

XKR has similar numbers..

I had an XJR, it was pretty sweet: <a href="http://www.karljay.com/jag">Pics of my 1999 XJR</a>

Default You're right...it was an XKR.

I was too busy chuckling at the red R badge.

XJR's are fast on the highway but to soft in the twisties. Its a fun sleeper though.

Default chuckle, why?

the Red R badge means it's a no joke car.. it's fast stock.

When I had my XJR, at least 3 ricer kids rev and race me all the time.. all 3 times the ricers where all show. I easily smoked them off the line and mad car lengths. They were shocked as hell for a heavy a$$ big luxury sedan.

Default Well

It kind of looked like the Honda Type R sticker. I found it ironic that Jaguar/Ford would select that particular font and color combination given its association with the ricer world.

BTW, I actually thought the car was pretty good looking.

Default ahh ok.. understood :-)

I never made that connection when I got the vehicle... Integra Type R.. Jaguar XKR/XJR etc. Coz I think of "Type R" or "Type S" for Acura. And just "R" for Jaguar.
