New Jag XJ



The 2010 XJ is almost identical to the XFR, but is see one major difference: on the hood, there is no air intakes. Jag's new $85,000 supercar has a very pretty interior. When you buy buy it, you can choose to have 385 horsepower, 470 horsepower or 510 horsepower on the non optional 5 liter V8 engine. 100 km/h (60 mph) comes in just 5.4. seconds, but the most powerful model will reach it in 4.7. seconds. It's 6-speed automatic transmission gearbox is the same as it's cousins the XF and the XFR.

New Jag XFR



It's a proper sportscar alright! The all new 2010 Jaguar XFR is one of the latest out of the factory and one of the hottest new jags. It's 4 cylinder supercharged V8 pumps 510 horsepower and 461 lb-ft of torque. It's rated 6/10 interior is very sporty and nice. A few gadgets are heated and cooler power front seats and the bluetooth device. Price varies between
$79,150 and $80,000. 100 km/h (60 mph) comes in just 4.3. seconds and the top speed is unsure at this point.

New Jag





Jaguar quietly and stealthily revealed the new XKR-S. This new supercar is powered by a 4.2 liter V8 engine that pushes out 420 horsepower. All this power is sent to the rear wheels through the six speed automatic gearbox – which is built Jaguar’s sequential shift system. The new Jag may seem like the old xk but, well it does LOOK the same but its faster, more powerful and its more comfortable though it has a bigger price tag But I think its worth it.
