Jaguar XKRS GT - The Rarest Modern Jag Ever Made
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2021
- This is the Jaguar XKRS-GT, one of 40 cars ever made. It's a Loud, Fast and Visceral Race Car for the street. It sports a supercharged 5.0L V8 engine making 550hp with lots of aero, upgraded suspension and so much more.
Let me know if you would like to see more car features like this and what cars you would like to see. It was so much fun making this short film and I'm so pumped to make more.

My GF owns one of the 5 sold in Canada. It’s so damn beautiful and fierce. Much like her haha.
The XKR meets all the criteria of cars that I shouldn’t have parked in my garage:
-long-hood
-narrow-body
-outdated-infotainment system
-bouncy-ride (when driven slow)
-70s looking interior (seats, doors, dashboard)
-wrong color exterior in a sports car (black!)
-etc…
But after watching so many videos talking about it being the best hidden jewel in the GT world and probably becoming a future classic I was tempted to drive one. And boy they were absolutely right!
I bought one here in California in May 2022 and I am super fascinated by the ton of potential this car has, this car is really a carmodder’s dream!!!
15,000 bought me a stock 2007 XKR w/ 4.2 supercharged engine with barely 70k miles; I think this is a steal for the price and I am so excited about the big changes I’ll be able to make to this car for less than $3200!!!
-lowering-springs and spacers $1100 (parts & labor)
-side-fins from an Audi RS5 to make car look even lower $300 (since sideskirts for the XKR are so hard to find)
-paint-correction $500 (paint is still good for a more than 10-year old car though)
-powder paint wheels 🛞 to black $400
-blackout front grilles, side, and rear emblems $500
-black Alcantera interior ceiling upholstery $350
-change all interior/exterior bulbs to white LEDs $60
The looks and handling of this car is going to be even more amazing than the enthusiast here claim it to be… I will upload before/after pictures when I am done with my project 😎🍻
BTW… the car sitting next to it in my garage is 10-years newer and over $100k more, a $2017 Carrera S.
2007 XKR = Great Value for your money! 💵
Finally bought my XKR, a 2011 in Lunar Blue. I also love these cars because they are just so unknown outside of certain circles even in the car enthusiast hobby. The roar, the luxury, and the power just checks all the boxes for me. If I had the resources I would love to get a XKR-S or the GT but I am so happy with my girl. Every time I put my foot down I have this huge grin on my face.
The look on his Mrs' face when he won the auction 😂😂
I know right??!!😂😂
the look and her shaking her head really pissed me off... how about being happy for your husband! it clearly means a lot to him and he has the funds and means to buy it. its his fucken money after all woman like this really piss me off
Great car man👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Superb Video, lovely to see James express the soul of the XK in depth, excellent editing and B roll too, well done! Went from the 2010 5.0 XK for a few years and needed to scratch that itch and bought a 2013 XKR, It's such an excellent daily driver too.
That License plate was made for her, love it. Project 8 is a beast !
A very rare car!!! I just started driving the car on Forza 7 on the XBOX!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
oh wow thats awesome. didn't know it was on forza. I'm checking it out for sure
Wonderful car. I have an 09 XKR Portfolio convertible and I think of all the cars I've ever owned, it's my favorite. Like you said, there is just something about a Jag.
Brilliant film. Just watch is on Full Octane Garage's channel but had to come over and like/comment on your video. Fab editing and captured the owners passion for Jaguar.
Great video and Golden production quality.
Haha thanks so much🙌🏾
Fantastic video, Elvis. Thanks for doing it!
All round awesome.
Oh yeah
Well done Elvis!!! Absolutely loved it, excellent editing.
Thanks so much Dan, I really appreciate it🙌🏾🙌🏾

Great video! Enjoyed it.
The garage is now complete! White XKR-S GT, Project 7 and Project 8… and a F-pace SVR for the daily.
She is gorgeous 😍
Petrolious good video my good friend... thank you . Its a work of art and definitely a great testimonial to the GT. On a side note.. I’m true to my word. There is now a Project8 in the garage. Hope you can drive it this weekend. We will have some of our own content coming soon on the Full Octane Garage! Also check out David Moore’s book on Jaguar and the XKR-S GT... “One Moore for the Road”

Thanks so much James, it was so much fun putting the video together. I’m so pumped and can’t wait to see the project 8!!
Great job!
Thanks 🙏
epic video!
Exquisite taste Sir! Regards from 🇬🇧
I’ve only seen the RS- GT on the showroom floor of Jaguar Dealer
I have a 05 xkr I’ll be driving to the beach and in the city I love the people reactions like wtf is that 🤣 it’s just funny to me that an 05 car still turn heads
I am crying love jags had 2
Can I have it when your done with it plz
he needs an xj220
Driving with Melissa's hubby? Ya??
Oh yeah
It looks faster than it is.
There are 45 in total and rumour of a rare 46
I bet my exhaust on my Xkr is louder……..😏
He has never driven a Lexus lfa which is still better but this is up there with the gti but it nice and it look great and it's gotta be a good unicorn
No argument here on the LFA... have never even seen one in real life but definitely a fan! A little too expensive for our budget.. lol
Hasn't got the grace of a Jaguar.
I’ll take this over the LFA. Sure that is nice but it ain’t got the torque and cat like appearance as the Jaguar.
LFAs are ugly tho
Least reliable cars out there
the look of the wife and her shaking her head really pissed me off... how about being happy for your husband! it clearly means a lot to him and he has the funds and means to buy it. its his fucken money after all woman like this really piss me off
