Supercharged V-8 and a body like Jenna....

It's no mustang. I was jonesin' for a GT-500. Wanted one for 35 years but could not bring myself to do it. I just bought a 2003 XKR vert for $35k ,26,000 miles. Same money as a Shelby GT but it has IRS, 14 in. Brembos, an interior to be proud of and a body that won't stop turning heads. Easily upgradeable to 500hp. There are so many ways to like what you drive.

Yup....blower pulleys, ported heads and ported blower, exhaust, tuning chip, CAI, bigger intercooler. I wrote to Whipple to see if they could mount a twin screw supercharger...they are thinking about it. No problem with boost because it's all forged internals made for it. Jag built about 5000 of these cars per year , so you dont see too many. It weighs the same as a Mustang. Thanks,guys.

Huh? Not the "other" Jenna? - the one most red-blooded adult males are probably familiar with, but for the most part publicly deny knowing about when in polite company? Ahem. Well, carry on...
