Jaguar-F-Type-Coupe-R-cover

It’s hard to take your eyes off the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but its brilliant design isn’t the only story at the LA Auto Show.

The F-Type Coupe carries over the same engines as the convertible, but replaces the V8S convertible model with the F-Type Coupe R, which makes an impressive 550-horsepower.

We loved the exhaust note of the F-Type, so it’s safe to say this V8 R will sound like a herd dinosaurs charging down the street.

Also new for the F-Type coupe is a set of carbon ceramic brakes, which will help turn this car into an ultimate performance machine capable of delivering the goods on the track or the street.
