I have been making the trip up to Vermont to watch the Mt. Equinox Hillclimb for many years… and getting there is half the fun. So, when a friend at Jaguar offered me a brand new F Type R coupe in Tourmaline Brown, I grabbed the keys before they could change their mind.
The R is the big cat in the F-Type line. You have the P450 RWD and the P450 R-Dynamic AWD. Both put out 444 HP from their 5-liter supercharged engines. Taking them to a top speed of 177 MPH and 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds. Then there is the R. A little extra voodoo is sprinkled on this one. The same 5-liter engine now puts out 575 HP with a top speed of 186, and 0 to 60 now takes 3.5 seconds.
