Is there any way you can tell if a xkr has the dynamic R package, the performance package, or the performance exhaust package by looking at the car? If it is not listed on the sales ad and it is not showing on the vin lookup, can you tell some other way.

What does the Dynamic R package, performance package, or the exhaust package really do or add to car?

Sorry for the questions but looking for a xkr and need to know if I need to wait for one with the package I need on it.

Thanks

In very simple terms, the Dynamic R was the run-out model with suspension upgrades from the XKR-S, which includes stiffer springs and revised damper and differential settings. It is 10 mm lower and also includes the speed pack (performance pack in the US?) with the 174 mph limiter and "body kit". I believe it also has the performance exhaust which is a bit louder. Not really sure there is any noticable performance difference but it has the X-Pipe in the centre. If you want the full tune, the X-Pipe is apparently a must though.

If you have the VIN, you can plug it into the JLR Topix website for the build data.
