New Jaguar S Type!!!!!

I read in my Ford World newspaper that Jag is releasing a new beefier version to the S-Type. Blacked-out trim, lowered and somewhere in the 350 horses - to 400.....
Hello Honda wake up and give us more HP...

we know.




"2002 Jaguar S-Type
Jaguar continues to improve the feline breed, with a significant update to the S-Type sedan that enhances appearance, performance, and comfort. All models benefit from a stiffened body structure, lightweight structural elements, and myriad premium features. At the top of the range, the S-Type joins the XK Series in offering a R model. Base S-Types feature a 240-hp/3.0-liter V-6, but the S-Type R touts a 400-hp/4.2-liter supercharged V-8 capable of making 0-60 mph in an estimated 5.2 seconds. R models are fitted with either a five-speed manual or an optional six-speed automatic transmission. The S-Type R also boasts performance-tuned suspension, brakes, tires and wheels, as well as model-specific interior and appearance upgrades."

Jaguar is supposed to make a X-type R that competes with the SLK32 AMG and the M3, 6 spd, AWD, 370hp SC'ed V8. Jag said it will be a sub 5 second car and is supposed to have all kinds of suspension upgrades. Also in this months Jaguar Magazine there is a new Sedan called the R-100 that comes stock with 285/30/21s and looks so fucking sweet. Who knows if it ever comes out

Yes it was on the auto show circuit for 2 years, but they just announced that it will be produced, then it was a concept. :P
