Any info on this Taiga Green XKR?
I have seen this XKR for sale twice and have really wanted it both times.
2012 Jaguar XK - Smyrna, GA - Nalley Lexus Smyrna - CMB46260
It is an unusual color. Taiga green metallic, which I don't see anywhere in the model brochures. I am really wanting to get back into an XK, but this is not near enough for me to look at in person. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul

Yeah, I hate the hood leaper, but love the color combination. BRG metallic was a standard color for the XK in 2012. I have seen a few XF and XJ 2012 US spec models for,sale here and there. It seems lighter than BRG metallic, more like the Emerald Fire color a few years earlier. I guess maybe it was a special order color.

Except Botanical Green is HHN. I've gone through all of the model year brochures and so far all I have found is emerald fire, botanical, BRG and JRG - it appears you have found an ultra rare special order color.

Found this site, which does list Taiga Green as an option for the 2012 XK/XKR:
See 2012 Jaguar XK Color Options - CarsDirect
Also saw another touch up site that lists Taiga Green as code HAC:
Jaguar HAC Taiga Green

It is a rare color. The paint code is HAC and the trim code is RGB. I have seen a few XF and XJ models in Taiga listed for sale that are US spec cars, but never an XK. This car was for sale in 2014 and I wanted it then but couldn't move on it. We'll see if I have any better luck this time. Thanks for the responses. I have posted an inquiry on the XF forum page to see if anyone knows what this color looks like in person. No luck in that yet. Taiga on my iPad appears to be lighter than BRG, more like Emerald Fire from a few years ago.

Lucky you! If I had known about Emerald Fire before I bought my Radiance Red, I may have waited for one to pop up, and made it my first non-red vehicle purchase. EF is a fantastic color.
