Default Some interior pictures of my XKR-S

A couple of you asked so here you go. I really like this particular layout. I'm not a fan of the two tone seat insert layouts.

Thanks, it's blue/black though. The pictures are a tad overexposed

Also not a fan of the two-tone seats. Yours is really sharp looking.

A real treat awaits when you open the door!

How's the Bowers and Wilkins Hi Fi? I've used their reference speakers in home hi fi for years and when I heard they'd made a system for our cars I was impressed!

Lol -- I didn't think they'd introduced a new leather color, but yeah -- the difference between the piano black console and the leather made me think they'd gone to a grey.

Yes it is leather with the carbon fiber look embossed onto it.

I personally am NOT impressed with the XKR-S B&W stereo system...its very BRIGHT...just like one national reviewer stated - and I have spoke to another XKR-S owner who called and complained. What is ODD is that this seems to be a problem only for XKR-S cars...one reviewer stated it was not a problem on a previous XKR that he drove. Very odd indeed. nobody buys this car to listen to the radio though - so the heck with it!!

Yes, I agree. This is very true at lower sound levels. If you crank it up the bottom end fills in and it then sounds great.

On the other hand, I love the two tone seats in the XKR-S. I like colors and I like good contrasts. Having said that, your combo looks great, tasteful, eye-catching in an understated way.

I think the b&w system in my Xkr-s is good. However, I had to adjust settings on the system - increase the base, etc for it to sound good. Having said that, my last Porsche had a crappy Bose system, so my jag's stereo sounds great in comparison!
