Now I know we're probably not going to see many, the XE SVR is certainly starting to sound tasty. Looks like the R and SVR could and should share the same 5.0L Supercharged V8 only with the SVR kicking out 550 ponies vs the R's 'anaemic' 495.

Think of the SVR as M3 GTS... http://www.motorauthority.com/news/...oth-xe-r-and-xe-svr-performance-models-report

550 hp is really ridiculous. Some serious power. Do we have any idea what the price tag on that vehicle will end up being? What is it comparable to from other brands so that we can get a ballpark? The targets mentioned in the article haven't even come out yet, so they don't help much with figuring out a price range.

RR keeps raising the bar. They even gave the evoque SVR treatment.

Think of it like M3 vs M3 GTS (ok maybe not as ridiculous as a $50K difference but it sounds like they plan serious work)
