Jaguar XKR Goodwood Special - A Goodwood Would be Good

Looks like the Jaguar XKR will get a bigger set of stones to go with its pretty face.

Looks like the Jaguar XKR will get a bigger set of stones to go with its pretty face. And the result will be called the XKR Goodwood Special. Although it's named after one legendary track, an early model has posted an impressive time at another. It lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in seven minutes, 58 seconds-anything under eight minutes is heroic. The production car will have a top speed of 186 mph. Last year, a special XKR debuted at Goodwood's famous Festival of Speed. Along with a lowered suspension, it had a supercharged V8 that develops 523 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, a tad more than the normal XKR. We wait with bated breath.
