2012 Jaguar XKR-S Coupe
Jaguar is building some of the most emotionally appealing cars on the market today.
Eric Tingwall found great delight in chucking an XKR-S around a racetrack, but my short time behind the wheel of this uber-Jag was spent in the Detroit suburbs and a brief jaunt on the highways back to Ann Arbor. It was a journey where I could easily forget just how much power lay under my right foot. Under normal driving, the XKR-S is tame and luxurious, like any other modern Jaguar. The suspension may be slightly stiffer than your run-of-the-mill XKR, but it's not something that you notice over most road surfaces. That extra "-S" makes itself known, however, once the go-pedal goes down. Then the 550-hp, supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 sings. The aural delights that come from the tailpipes rival those found in Carnegie Hall in New York and La Scala in Milan. Push the accelerator and you can't help but to let the rocket-like propulsion push you back in the sculpted performance seats and pull your face into a wide smile.
