Why is the 04-08 XJR 3600 lbs? As a 400hp full-size luxury sedan it should weigh more. Also the picture is of a 94-03 XJR

Well we know manufacturers lie about hp figures and i would also add kerb weights of cars. When providing car weight figures it should be done with a full tank of fuel minus driver. Problem is they can't be trusted to release real figures.
