5 Jaguar F-Type R For Sale

Used Jaguar F-Type R For Sale

A driver-oriented fury that turns heads with its brilliant appearance, the 2016 Jaguar F-Type R for sale is an exclusive work of art. A 5.0-liter supercharged V8 produces 550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque making for an impressive 0-60 mph acceleration time of 3.9 seconds. The eight-speed automatic transmission makes for smooth running at any speed, and it also allows the R to boast a top speed of 186 mph. It’s not just speed and numbers that make this car beautiful, however; the all-wheel-drive system, suspension, and differential that are all adaptive to driving conditions ºcertainly help. The F-Type R is unique to every driver's style, and even includes a dynamic mode—a toggle switch that remaps the car’s software to sharpen throttle response and stiffen the steering and suspension. Inside, one can find premium leather seats with the “R” emblem, a 770-watt MERIDIAN sound system and an aluminum-weave center console. The new Jag is so refined it even has driver-deployable door handles and rear wing.

Forget the performance statistics, the aluminum-trimmed dashboard, and the impeccably crafted leather seats. Forget the Gyrodyne Alloy wheels and the carbon ceramic brakes. They just don’t matter when a car sounds unbelievably good and believe me, the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe sounds that good. Oh, it has a 550 horsepower 5.0-liter supercharged V-8 engine? All I care about is that it makes that noise, that rumble that sends tingles through my spine and reverberates through my ears. I mean, what really makes a great car? Its active differential with torque vectoring? Its sport suspension with active dynamics? Sure, those things don’t hurt, but do they matter when you grab a set of keys in the morning? Okay, so they do. But I will never pass up a chance to drive a car that sounds as good as the F-Type R. I will never pass up the opportunity to feel as alive as the engine makes me feel when the 550 horsepower it produces passes through its quad exhaust pipes. -Justin Bell
