    Quick Spin: 2012 Jaguar XKR-S Convertible
    1347044220

    Editor's Note: This is our new Quick Spin format, now shorter, less formal and more personal than our regular reviews. We've reinvented the format so we can talk about even more of the new vehicles we drive. Enjoy! Not long after executive editor Chris Paukert drove the Jaguar XKR-S Coupe, I ...

    Official: 2013 Jaguar XK gets new Touring trim, Dynamic Pack
    1345156260

    The naturally-aspirated V8 that only gets a single application in the combined 2013 Jaguar XF and XJ lines soldiers on in the 2013 XK (a 2012 model is pictured, but there are no syling changes), with four of the eight XKs available from next year fitted with the 385-horsepower engine. Yes, that's ...

    Spy Shots: Mystery Jaguar XKR-S track pack caught testing
    1340040600

    Jaguar looks to be hard at work on a new Track Edition of the company's already menacing XKR-S. Spy photographers spotted a more hardcore Track Edition testing at the Nürburgring recently, and while details are scarce, odds are the high horsepower coupe will serve as a suitable competitor to ...

    Review: 2012 Jaguar XKR-S
    1339084620

    Cat Scratch Fever

    Keeping a vehicle fresh and relevant over a long model cycle is one of any automaker's toughest tasks. There are basically two schools of thought on how to do it: a steady parade of trim-and-tape special editions (Lexus SC 430 Pebble Beach Edition, anyone?) or the more ...

    Geneva: 2012 Jaguar XKR Artisan Edition proves there's nothing wrong with a sexy black dress
    1331136000

    It's been said before, but Jaguar doesn't seem to know how to make a bad-looking car these days. Take the current XK, for example. It's been around since 2006 and has largely gone unchanged aside from a slight nip/tuck for the 2012 model year, but it's arguably one of the most beautiful coupes in ...

    Official: Jaguar reskins the cat with new XK Artisan edition
    1330039980

    Every car has its better and worse angles, but by and large we'd argue the Jaguar XK is one of the most beautiful cars on the road today. Almost artistic, we'd say, and Jaguar itself seems to agree with the release of the new Artisan special edition. Launched (for the time being at least) in ...

    Rumormill: Jaguar considering track-focused XKR-S
    1329328740

    Items like the thick, cross-stiched leather, touchscreen navigation and a Bowers & Wilkins stereo hide just how wild the Jaguar XKR-S is. Without them you'd be overcome by the scent of a feral carnivore with blood on its breath, which is what the hottest coupe in Jaguar's portfolio really is. ...

    Video: Jaguar's jungle looks awfully inviting in new ad
    1322755020

    There are plenty of attributes we associate with Jaguar. Luxurious, powerful and attractive all spring readily to mind, but we're not sure we'd tie the world "playful" to the brand. Jaguar seems to think otherwise, and has released a new ad showing three of its most sultry models frolicking about ...

    Video: Jaguar plays up XKR-S Nürburgring run
    1321912680

    The droptop version of the Jaguar XKR-S – the one introduced to the U.S. at the LA Auto Show that's already sold out – has been thrown around the Nürburgring by test driver Sascha Bert, and the recipe contains all the basic ingredients: a lot of music and suspension travel, a ...

    Los Angeles: 2012 Jaguar XKR-S Convertible is fast, expensive and already sold out
    1321566900

    Jaguar has pulled the covers off its 2012 XKR-S Convertible here at the LA Auto Show, the droptop variant of the XKR-S Coupe which arrived earlier this year. Fitted with a power-operated folding cloth roof, the two-door takes its passengers from shade to sun in just 18 seconds at the touch of a ...

    Official: Jaguar bringing XKR-S Convertible to LA
    1321028460

    Jaguar has officially announced that the droptop counterpart to its new XKR-S will bow at the Los Angeles Auto Show next week. We've spied the XKR-S Convertible before, and aside from some minor tweaks to the suspension to keep the car from getting all wobbly after the roof was cut off, not much ...

    Spy Shots: Jaguar XKR-S Convertible spotted testing
    1313508540

    There isn't much to speculate upon here. Take one tantalizing Jaguar XKR-S, cut off the roof, strengthen the body a bit and voila – Jaguar XKR-S Convertible. Sounds good, right? Our spies recently captured this bright red prototype out running the Nürburgring, and judging by how ...

    First Drive: 2012 Jaguar XKR-S [w/video]
    1308844620

    While Jaguar readies a slate of new vehicles to broaden its product portfolio, it's doing a Bentley-esque job of making the most of the vehicles it currently has. If there's any surprise in the XK getting more new outfits than a Ken doll, it's that we didn't realize there was so much that could ...

    Days On Lot: What cars are moving the quickest and slowest out of showrooms?
    1307570460

    Car sales fell for the first time in eight months in May. According to Kicking Tires, it took dealers 54 days to move a brand-new vehicle off their lots compared to 48 days in April, thanks in part to steep fuel costs, supply issues due to the earthquake and tsunami tragedies in Japan and skimpy ...

    Video: Jaguar XKR-S looks, sounds beastly
    1307118600

    Jaguar has released new footage of the 2012 XKR-S, positively mauling Portugal's Autódromo Internacional do Algarve. As promised, the steroid-fed XK looks to be as fleet-footed as a NASA orbiter, pulling down 60 mph in 4.2 seconds on its way to a 186 mph top speed. It also appears that ...

    Jaguar Italy trims out a special XKR in... plaid Alcantara?!
    1302993180

    We know what you were thinking: the Jaguar XKR is pretty cool, but what it really needs is a plaid interior. Fortunately, Jaguar Italy and Alcantara Interiors have teamed up to realize exactly that. And they didn't just put in some plaid inserts like on a Volkswagen GTI, either: we mean Prince ...

    Old Ghosts Haunt Great Bones I know you're probably here to read all about how the 2011 Jaguar XKR Convertible stacks up against other six-digit luxury sports cars, but I've got a confession to make. Before we get down, dirty and up to our elbows in power figures, you need to know that this is ...

    Having recently released its innovative and show-stopping C-X75 concept last Fall, Jaguar probably didn't have the resources – or perhaps the need – to create a brand-new E-Type in observance of the seminal car's 50th birthday. ...
