Default Roman Bronze

I have seen conflicting statistics about Roman Bronze XK8/R's. Were there any made in 2003/2004/2005?

I believe this colour was only available in NA from 2001-2.

I have never seen the color in person, but while I was looking for my car, a beautiful 2001 kept popping up in Indiana. It seems like a gorgeous color. I had originally limited my search to BRG or Black, but I think I would have taken a Roman Bronze if one popped up with everything else the way I wanted it.

Sorry to revive this zombie thread. But I am pretty certain the Roman Bronze was only offered in 2001 and possibly 2002

Hello, it is my understanding that the color Roman Bronze was only used in the year 2001.
I can say without a doubt the color Roman Bronze is the absolute richest and finest color that a Jaguar XKR comes in, of course that is IMHO.

I actually got to see this colour in person during the holidays. It is truly an impressive colour.

While clearly not quite as beautiful as Carnival Red, Roman Bronze is nevertheless my second favorite color, rich and understated.
