Being new to Jaguar, does anyone know if they plan on making an X-type R? I would really like to buy one in two years. I dont expect Jaguar to change the style much in two years since it hasnt really changed since 2002.
I know this is a very newbie question so please be gentle.

 

i really doubt it, but would love one if they did.

 

I am really liking that new 2008 XJR but it will be to far out of my price range, well probably wont be able to afford a X-type R either.

 

I know it sounds a bit difficult, but I know people that can custom build a turbo manifold,do the intercooler piping, run your oil-lines, upgrade your fuel-pump and injectors, match your new downpipe to your current exhaust so that your car can keep the luxury and SLEEPER status, and run it at about 7 lbs of boost to not strain the engine at all and you'd be looking at about 80 more HP all for about 5K installed. All you'd have to do is get the ECU chipped, and I'm sure there has to be someone that can do it so that it can be set for the new pump and injectors for about 1,000. You'd have to buy some gauges and ****, but for about 6-7K you'd have a bad *** JAG!

 

amen....

 

+ 1 on that statement..........

I'd like an 'R' type model but not anything like the bonspeed, needs to look alot classier!

 

There wont be an X-Type-R.

They had it planned a few years back. 3.0 V6 S/C 330bhp.

 

Yeah we know its awesome to dream though, we already know they are canning the car in 2010, it'll be nice though once the model that replaces it. I love the c-xf concept!

 

mmmmm Nice car
