Hi Guys. First post including a pic of my Dynamic R BRG. From what I've been told there were only two BRG R's made. One soft top and my coupe so this is a rare beast. Came off production line two weeks before the line was closed & was on the production line with the US Final Fifty's.

Love the color and as it should be. I looked for a convert but couldn't find one in the 2012-2014 range. Good luck.

Hi, thanks and yes the colour is great. Blackish when cloudy but bright green when the sun is out. I see you are in NY. I spend a few years in Boston until last year and would love to do the I95 trip down to NY in this. Even at your 65mph limit!

We could trade as I used to do business with a company in Chislehurst Kent some years ago and traveled to the UK maybe 15-20 times. Enjoy your ride.

Your a lucky boy,gorgeous, take care of it, will be a keeper i'd say. Simply stunning, good weather this weekend for a bit of posing.
The kit that's on your car that's what i want for my xkr, the front splitter i could modify, side sills and rear diffuser.
daven2505 if your at your dealer can you ask them to price that full kit if it is available. When i ring the dealers it's hard to describe what i want and to get part numbers right, you can show what i'm talking about.
Would be most appreciated.

What a beaut! The only thing that can make the XK look better than it already does is a BRG paint job!

The Dynamic R and the Final Fifty are the best-value packages ever - all the toys for the standard price. Lovely car, and it has my favourite wheels.

If you're not too far southwest, bring it to the Brighton run in May:

Great choice, if not almost exactly like my BRG XK-R! When I was getting mine (Pacific Northwest USA) they told me it was a very rare color, along with the dynamic, black and performance package combo. Damn if I didn't cruise up next to one exactly like mine on the highway not 40 miles from home about a month later. Both drivers looked a bit surprised. Funny thing, the next car we came up on was an F-type.

Welcome to the forum...
