Default my new 2012 XFR

Just replaced my 2010 XF Portfolio for a 2012 XFR. Much more streamlined in the looks. Took me a few days to get over the whole "Audi" led look but I think it looks fine. Gets lots of stares

And I'm staring at it now...looks great! Do you normally trade after just a couple of years, or was it the new styling or 510 hp that did it?

Beautiful car. Welcome to the XFR family! While the XF is no slouch, the power of the XFR is addictive, isn't it? Next, you have to sign up and do the R Academy!

Looks great! Congrats!

Any chance to get some rear shots straight on, and some side, and 3/4 angles?


I live the new headlights, and front in general... the back is what I am unsure about (not that its bad) but loved the pre facelift look

I like new style better as well. I also believe that every 2-3 year replacement is more budget friendly rather than 8-10 years replacement

I drove the '12's at the R Academy a few weeks ago. The same car as my '11 at the core, but the looks are more streamlined and I love the LED DRL's. The screen graphics are also more refined.

Beautiful car!

A few more photos, sorry for the quality, took them in a garage.

I originally was looking at a 2011 XJL (they let me test drive it for the day). I had saw the XFR just arrive in the morning. So it sort of haunted me all day, when I returned, I decided on the XFR, even though the '11 XJL had a better deal. I think it was the dashboard that turned me away from the XJL and the fact that the new XF/XFRs look more like the original concept. I was glad that they "finished" the tail lights out. I always thought that the trunk lights were missing the bottom half.

It definitely can move when needed and I am looking into the R Academy.

Could you take a video clip of the you using the centre display? I'd like to see how smooth it is compared to the 2011 and earlier models.

So, where's this "solid" intake people keep talking about? Supposedly they blocked off a vent for aerodynamics reasons?
