I have 3 questions that I haven't found definative answers to: (all pertain to 2011 model)

will the front bumper/fascia and hood of the XFR fit w/o modification?

has anyone "recovered" the 40 hp and torque differential btwn the XFR and SC?

on Jaguar's US site, there is an interior option for the SC model, "interior pack"
which has 18/14 sport front seats; are these from the XFR minus the badging?

Thanks in advance!

 

so I was wondering the same thing for your first question.

I am thinking yes from reading some previous posts on the site I believe you can recover the 40 hp by changing the ECU programming, my understanding is its the same exact engine with different programming. Check this out:

As for your last question I have the XFSC fully loaded with interior package and no the seats are not the same, the XFR seats are one of the two things I wish I had in my car the other being the hood. hope some of this helps

 

I haven't contacted the car's owner yet but it looks like the XFR front bumper is a go! http://www.xfforum.co.uk/forum/viewt...hp?f=25&t=4348

Got this back from the original poster: "As for fitting, the garage didn't realise untill they actually came to fit the bumper, but the XFR has a different undertray, so that will need to be ordered too. By all accounts its not immediately obvious that this is needed, but without it, there is no way of securing the bottom edge of the bumper."

 

Did you get a 2010 or 2011? I've managed to get a pic of a my2011 XFSC with the $1500 interior package withe sport seats and they are they same...minus the "R" embossing

 

I have the 2011, I guess my dealer was not entirely truthful, wish I had them in my color. I didnt even see those in the brochure. Sweet if you get them though.

 

Your right, I just looked it up on the website. The dealer told me mine was fully loaded, did not offer the fact that I could have gotten the upgraded seats. I'm kind of pissed, but I looked and the upgraded seats done come in the spice color which I really love, so I'm not as upset. I would love to have the spice sport seats. Thanks for the info.
