I am thinking of getting rid of my 59 plate 600hp Jag XKR, it is very nice and very fast, But what to get next, it needs to be at least as quick as the jag, 0-60 in under 4 seconds and at least have a top speed 175, so what is there out there as quick as the Jag and in my price range of about 60K

Thanks in advance

no point in swapping this XKR for the new one as mine is quicker than the S because of its modifications, plus it wouldnt feel like I had changed cars

A Z06 'Vette will match or better your criteria......

Unless you don't want any change out of the considerable sum of money that seems to be burning a hole through to your boxers.

How is the XKR modified, may i ask?
If you're ok with modifications, you've got a lot of options for highly modified cars with that type of budget, how practical does it need to be?

Like the idea of that, might look in to it.

The Jag has been re mapped, smaller supercharger pulley fitted, full Miltech exhaust, rolling road reed out 594.2 HP at the wheels, plus a few other small mods to help handling.
