2013 Jaguar XKR-S for sale! This remarkable 2013 Jaguar XKR-S Convertible is a rare and visceral expression of British engineering, finished in the striking Italian Racing Red Metallic over a bespoke Warm Charcoal carbon-leather interior. A standout detail of this specific example is the contrasting Red stitching that accents the performance seats and cabin surfaces, perfectly mirroring the vibrant exterior. With only 32,980 miles and an unblemished history, this car represents a high-water mark for the Jaguar enthusiast, being the most powerful and focused iteration of the aluminum-chassis XK series. This limited-production supercar-slayer is powered by a 5.0L Supercharged V8 delivering 550 horsepower and 502 lb-ft of torque, allowing it to achieve a top speed of 186 mph while maintaining the refined poise expected of a top-tier Grand Tourer.
Contemporary road testers lauded the XKR-S for its "slingshot acceleration" and "unholy rush towards the horizon," often describing it as a car for those who demand "raw, naked aggression" balanced by surprising ride comfort. Reviewers specifically noted the aero-tuned body kitfeaturing a carbon fiber rear wing, front splitter, and vertical air channelswhich provides a significant reduction in lift at high speeds. The driving experience is further enhanced by an active differential, a performance-tuned 6-speed shiftable automatic transmission, and a high-fidelity Bowers & Wilkins 525W premium sound system, ensuring the cabin environment is as immersive as the mechanical soundtrack.
As one of the final naturally aspirated-styled flagship Jaguars before the move to the F-Type, the XKR-S is highly coveted by collectors for its blend of classic long-nosed proportions and modern performance capabilities. Rolling on 20-inch Vulcan forged alloy wheels in a matte dark grey finish, its presence is underscored by the high-specification artisan craftsmanship that makes this model a true collectible. Its rarity and status as the fastest production Jaguar of its era ensure its desirability among enthusiasts seeking a vehicle that is, as critics noted, "a little bit intimidating and a lot of fun." This meticulously maintained example offers a premier opportunity to own a piece of Jaguar's high-performance heritage that continues to command respect on both the road and the concours lawn.
