We can also see the copious amounts of black mesh in the front air dam’s side vents, which used to be aluminum stripes. This sets the Jaguar XF-R apart from its famous siblings.

Sources at Jaguar reveal that the XF-R will be launched in May 2009 and this new baby might grace the upcoming 2009 Detroit Motor Show.
