Explore the 2009 Jaguar XKR

The best GT Coupe made

The Jaguar XKR is beautiful, stylish, has lots of legroom and more than enough power. The interior fit and finish with the American burled walnut blend old & new styles and technology. The seats are infinitely adjustable and very comfortable. The steering wheel can also be set for height and depth which is very helpful. This car turns heads like no other car I have owned although that's not why I purchased it. The car is simply fun to drive and handles very weel.

end of production sports car: a classic

One of the few convertibles made large enough foe a 6'2" person. Car is actually a 2011, towards end of production where bugs have been worked out. Very good deal for a soon to be classic. Buy, or alternatively be one of the 30 others who option for a mercedez, and don't be noticed!

Awesome car

This is a great car. It's fast, handles superbly, rides smoothly and quietly for the type of car it is. Absolutely trouble free. All beautiful soft leather inside. Power every thing. I've never owned a car that got so many looks and comments. The fit and finish is A-plus. Won't carry to much stuff, and forget the back seat, except for your small dog. This was my third XKR, if they still made them I'd still have one.

Performance and Luxury.

You will LOVE driving this car. Surprising performance from the supercharged V8, and all around luxury when you are not pressing it. Paddle shifters are not really necessary unless you are on a track. Extended warranty is definitely worth it, as parts and labor can be high.

I absolutely love this car and would recommend it.

I have owned at least a hundred different sports cars over many years. This Jaguar XKR V8 is among my most favorite. It has over 500 horsepower so it is very powerful but at the same time comfortable and totally reliable. It is also very luxurious compared to other spartan sports cars. The value as a used car is amazing compared to its original price when new.

Great car, sleek, fast and ready for the summer. Most powerful car I have owned. Black on Black, well maintained and killer exhaust system. Convertible with one button control.

Beauty on Wheels!!!

This car is so enjoyable to drive. It has great power, incredible handling, extremely comfortable and eye catching appeal. I have owned an XK and now on my second XKR and can't imagine driving anything else.
