Jaguar recently announced the end of production for the XK and not surprisingly it has released a special edition model to give the two-door a proper send-off. With only 50 copies headed to the U.S., the 2015 Jaguar XK Final Fifty Limited Edition will be rare and we wouldn’t be surprised if all are already spoken for.Jaguar will offer the XK Final Fifty in 25 coupes and 25 convertibles. All will be painted in Ultimate Black paint and will get the louvered hood from the XKR-S GT. Under the hood, however, will be the 5.0-liter V-8 that makes 510 hp and 461 lb-ft of torque. The 50 limited XKs will also feature the Performance Pack and Dynamic Pack, which adds a long list of upgrades including an aero kit, an increased top speed of 174 mph (155 mph is standard), an adaptive suspension system, 20-inch forged wheels, and sport seats. Other visual touches include door sills marked with “XK Final Fifty” badges and a Final Fifty plague with the signature of Ian Callum, Jaguar’s design boss. The 2015 XK Final Fifty will reach showrooms this fall, officially marking the end of the current-gen 2+2, which has been on sale since 2007. That said, a successor is rumored to arrive in 2017 and could possibly grow in size. The size increase will further differentiate the new model from the recently launched F-Type coupe and convertible.
