Default A Great Article On the XKR

Here's a great article that appeared in the Toronto Sun the other day. It is on a 2012 XKR coupe (Guess they don't know the '13's are already on the streets) The car sure looks like it may be in Status Grey, the same as mine. Here's the link

2012 Jaguar XKR | Autonet.ca

"This vehicle may not get as much attention as coupes from Porsche or BMW, but it’s every bit as awesome."

Huh...? What is the author smoking? The XKR not getting as much attention as a BMW or a Porsche, both of which are dime-a-dozen in my neighborhoods?

Otherwise, nice article.

I think he may have been referring to media attention. It's true. Jaguars often slip under the radar that way.

I agree. I loved the article up to that point, but like Amcdonal86 said, he probably meant "media attention". I did enjoy the article though and that was a gorgeous XKR they had in the photo!!!
