2009 Jaguar XF-R Spy Shot

Not content with the vanilla Jaguar XF?  Fine.  What you’re looking at is the 2009 XF-R – a souped up XF.  The front end is different from the standard-fare XF, of course, with bigger intakes and scoops.  There are also some funky side skirts that really make a statement.  Good or bad – your call.

There’s undoubtedly a more potent engine under the hood – but it’s not clear what exactly that engine is.  Surely there will be a blower mounted between the banks of cylinders – and there’s a very real possibility of 500+ horsepower.  If it’s going to have a snowballs chance in hell of going up against a BMW M5, it’ll need every one of those ponies.
