This is 1 of 3 Midnight Black XKR Convertibles built early in 2012 model year as part of a trial, with a unique set of options that have never before been used on a convertible and will not enter full production - in other words this 1 of 3 Midnight Black XKR Convertibles that is utterly unique and will remain so. The trial was successful, proving the factory was capable of building the combination, but it was ultimately decided not to offer the option combination for the 2012 model year. Which means these options cannot be ordered, even as Special Order, on any other 2012 XK or XKR convertible.

The option pack these XKR Convertibles were built with is called the "Speed Pack". Jaguar does not offer the Speed Pack as a stand-alone option on any car in the US (for 2012MY it is only available as part of the Dynamic Pack on XKR Coupes), and it had never before been built on a convertible. Essentially the Speed Pack gives these cars the aerodynamic body kit seen on the 2011 model year XKR175 limited edition Coupes - the side sills, rear diffuser, and larger rear wing, all of which are shared with these 3 Midnight Black convertibles. The XKR convertible has a supercharged, direct-injected 5.0-liter V-8 churning out 510 HP with a six-speed paddle/automatic transmission and is the only transmission offered with an electronically controlled rear differential. The XKR convertible can rocket from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds, with 100 mph arriving in just 8.7.

Another aspect which makes this car unique is the Midnight Black paint - this paint was only used for a few months of 2012 model year production following the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The factory that produces much of the paint for Jaguar was inside the nuclear exclusion zone, so until the crisis was brought under control in Japan Jaguar temporarily reintroduced past colors into the paint palette, including the Midnight Black.

The elegant face of the XKR convertible becomes purposeful and aero-optimized, with slits and holes all over the hood; a low, carbon-fiber chin spoiler; and large gashes on each side of the fascia designed to control airflow around the vehicle sides. Rocker-panel extensions and lightweight, 20-inch wheels beef up the XKR’s profile, while the rear end gets a stand-up rear spoiler with a carbon-fiber inlay and a bumper contoured with a de rigueur diffuser. Four fat exhaust tips handle the engine’s exhalations. Jaguar claims that the alterations reduce overall lift, which a driver is certain to appreciate when traveling anywhere. The XKR convertible also rides lower, and chassis revisions include a new steering knuckle that increases camber stiffness. Spring rates front and rear have been increased, and the programming for the electronic active dampers is unique to this car.

As the man behind the styling of basically every Jaguar since the mid 2000s, two things should be known about Ian Callum - he's a big fan of the brand, and he can bloody well get whatever kind of Jag he wants.
His newest car, though, is not what you might expect. Rather than an F-Type or an XJ, Callum has gone old school, and commissioned a custom, resto-modded Jaguar Mark 2.
Designed by Callum and built by Classic Motor Cars in Shropshire, England, the Mark 2 was an 18-month project between the designer and the garage. The essentially new car draws its power from a 4.3-liter engine that's been pilfered and modified from an XK. It's mated to a five-speed manual transmission.

If you're lucky enough to have a nice vehicle, do your fellow gearheads a favor and don't park like a clown. Seriously. Not only will you anger everyone who is trying to find a place to park, but your nice car is a billboard reinforcing the stereotype that car people are self-important and inconsiderate.
Take this gentleman for example. He has a Jaguar XK, and understandably wants to take care of it. Rather than parking it far, far away from any other cars and getting a bit of exercise by walking to his building, he takes up two spots (albeit barely) close to the structure. From the cameraman's narration, we can tell his coworkers are less than thrilled about his inability to stay between the lines.
Naturally, they wanted to teach him a lesson, so they parked a bigger vehicle as close to his driver's door as possible. Mr. XK's attempts to enter his vehicle are rather amusing, culminating in his climbing through the passenger side and scooching over to the driver's seat. While we can debate this sort of treatment all day long, it was effective. The video includes a follow up at the end showing where the XK driver parked the next day, and as you might guess, it wasn't in the same spot.

With the introduction of the F-Type coupe and convertible, Jaguar has cleared room in its sports car lineup to drop the XK for new models. "There will be a 2015 model year XK, but the rumors are true, production for the XK will end later this year after eight years," said Wayne York Kung, Jaguar USA National Product Communications Manager, in an email to Autoblog. A replacement for the GT might be a very long way off.
The automaker told Auto Express that it's part of a "wider strategic vision and product planning cycle." Ending assembly will allow the feline luxury brand to build better-selling vehicles like the XE, its upcoming BMW 3 Series fighter. The new sedan is scheduled to go on sale in Europe in 2015 and in the US in 2016. It also needs to make room for the C-X17 crossover to be built, which is likely expected to sell better than a 2+2 GT car.
"There are no immediate plans to replace the XK," said Kung in his email. Jag was rumored to be considering moving a future generation of it upmarket. The new model would have been a bigger, softer grand tourer and allow the F-Type to be the brand's more hardcore sports car.
