The new Jaguar XKR is more machine than most can handle, but there will always be some who are looking for that extra edge. And for those few, Arden has answered the call. Starting with the stock supercharged convertible, the German tuning house has fitted a custom exhaust system for an extra 30 horsepower, bringing total output up to 540hp and nearly 500 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with a lowered suspension, bigger brakes, 21" wheels, a revised front end and a new diffuser, Arden claims its modified Jag can hit the magical 200 mile-per-hour mark. Which just goes to show that, like everything else in this world, automotive perfection is relative.
