08 Geneva - Jaguar XKR-S Coupe

For the Geneva Auto Show, Jaguar came with a special limited edition - it’s the XKR-S. They will manufacture only 200 products which will feature a 4.2-liter V8 supercharged engine that produces 420 HP, enough for boosting the Jaguar from 0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds.

The XKR-S Coupe is a lightweight sports car, but also with luxury ads: soft-grain leather, Bowers & Wilkins sound system, Charcoal Alston headliner and high-tech instruments.
