The company that took Jaguar to Le Mans glory in the late '80s is back with a custom Jaguar XJS pushing roughly 600 hp through a stick-shift transmission.
TWR has revealed the Supercat, which is based on a Jaguar XJS that sports an aggressive carbon-fiber body.Under the hood lies a roughly 600-hp supercharged V-12 mated to a six-speed manual that routes to the rear wheels.Just 88 units will be built with a starting price around $282,000.
Around back there's a ginormous diffuser and a protruding ducktail spoiler, while the motorsport-inspired look is capped off by aerodisc wheels and a side-exit exhaust.At the heart of the Supercat is a supercharged V-12 pushing out around 600 horsepower, and while TWR hasn't specified the displacement, we bet its colossal. Even more enticing is the fact that this engine is hooked up to a six-speed manual that routes power exclusively to the rear wheels.
