Hello everyone!
My name is Eric... Just registered here and hoping to contribute to the Jaguar forum community in the near future!
I currently drive a 2012 Buick Regal GS (6MT}. Clean car, great sedan/couple styling and German engineering. 2.0T with tune offers decent grunt as well!
I live in Kitchener Ontario, Canada
I'm ready to move up...
In the market for a low Km 2012 XK-R, preferably black and maybe with the black/performance package. Definitely with the 20" wheels (or actually all options).

 

Welcome from Texas... Good luck on your quest for a new ride...

 

Welcome to the forums Eric.
I got mine in the fall. I'm not driving it as much as I might because of the cold weather but that gives me time to study up on "how" to drive the darn thing.
It's got so many gadgets, I get lost sometimes.

 

Welcome aboard Eric.

Thanks everyone, for the warm welcome! Glad to be here...

 

So, looking at a 2012 XKR, the dealer isn't 100% on the options...specifically the adaptive headlights and adaptive exhaust. There are 2 buttons just forward of the parking brake, a chequered flag and a button that looks like a dial gauge... Anyone care to explain what they are?
Anyway to know if it has the adaptive headlights without driving it?
Thanks

 

Checkered Flag - Dynamic mode tunes the engine response, opens the active exhaust valves, stability system sensitivity and adaptive suspension firmness for higher-performance driving
ASL - Automatic Speed Limiter

 

So if equiped, it would also open the exhaust valves as well? So no way of knowing if this model has that option unless I drive it?
ALS. ..that's an interesting feature .never heard of that one before.

They cover 'all options'.
