I recently had the chance to test drive the new Jaguar XK Convertible.  There is a lot to say about this luxurious vehicle!

It is beautiful, inside and out.  One cool feature is that the top can be ordered in different colors, such as gray, burgundy, green or dark beige.  Most convertibles only come with a standard black canvas.  The Chicago XK Convertible has an aluminum cover that hides the canvas when the top is down, allowing for a clean look.

The cabin also comes with some awesome amenities.  For example, it comes with keyless entry and start, wireless cell phone link, a navigation system, and climate control system.  A great sound system also can be found in the Chicago Jaguar X Type. An Alpine Premium Sound system, that is 525 watts, 8 speakers, will keep the driver cruising to his or her favorite tunes!  SIRIUS radio is also an option in this car.

When I hit the open road I was delighted at what I experienced while driving with the top down.  The XK offers a 5.0L, V8 engine.  This makes a little bit of engine noise, but still, the great power that Jaguar lovers expect.   The Chicago XK can go from 0 to 60 in 5 seconds.   Take advantage of this on open roads (watching out for fellow motorists, of course!!).   Overall, I had a great time driving and would love to do it again soon!

Another feature that can be found on the XK is the Jaguar DriveSelect.  This was first introduced Chicago Jaguar XF. This is a knob that comes out of the center console when the engine comes to life.  It allows the driver to select the gear they want.  This is a modern take on the stick shift concept that was once a big staple of Jag models.

The Chicago Jaguar X Type convertible is a car you should test drive today!
