In terms of price and power, how does the 2007 Jaguar XKR compare to the 2007 BMW M6? Available in coupe form only, the $99,795 M6 requires a $13,000 premium over the $86,500 XKR coupe. From a power perspective, the 500-horsepower Bimmer offers an additional 80 ponies, though its 383 lb.-ft. of torque comes up shy of the XKR's 413 lb.-ft.

Is the 2007 Jaguar XKR a comfortable car to drive? If you're like our editor, meaning five-feet-eight-inches tall or less and of medium build, the XKR will provide plenty of overall room and a comfortable bucket seat. Padded armrests and a power tilt and telescoping steering wheel help, too. However, even with the seat positioned as far back as possible, we were able to reach and operate the pedals, so long-legged drivers might feel cramped. Also, the foot well is on the narrow side, and drivers of all sizes will want to use caution when entering the XKR, so as to prevent bumping their head on the sloping roof.

The last Jag I saw with satellite radio looked like a hatchet job where a separate unit was placed in the dash. Is there a new design in the 2007 XKR? Yes. Sirius satellite radio, an option on the XKR, is directly integrated with the standard sound system.
