Thanks to the leaky ship at 4wheelsnews we can now show you the upcoming 2010 Jaguar XFR that was originally scheduled to debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. Built to battle with the BMW M5, Audi RS6, Mercedes-Benz E63 and the Cadillac CTS-V, the up-spec Jaguar looks to be quite the contender.

The 2010 Jaguar XFR receives a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 with the ability to power down 510 horsepower and 460lb-ft of torque through its new 20-inch Nevis aluminum wheels. After the smoke clears, you’ll notice that the XFR is capable of rocketing to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and will continue on to an electronically limited 155 mph. Stopping a pussy cat with this kind of speed requires some heavy rollers and the XFR receives up-rated ventilated discs and R-spec calipers.

The exterior of the standard Jaguar XF was beautiful, but the 2010 XFR illustrates that beauty can always be enhanced. In this case, the cat receives a new aluminum hood with dual air extractors, new front fenders, new front fascia with chrome accents, side sills, rear boot lid spoiler and a new rear bumper with quad-exhaust pipes.

The interior has been enhanced with a dark aluminum trim, bolstered front sport buckets with the ‘R’ logo prominently displayed and a sport steering wheel. While the 2010 XFR looks best in black, enhancing its black panther attitude, it will be offered in these seven other colors: Botanical Green, Indigo, Kyanite Blue, Liquid Silver, Lunar Grey, Porcelain and Salsa.

We’ll have to wait for Jaguars official report to learn pricing and availability. Stay tuned.
