In my rush to enter as much 2014 pricing and features data before we begin another round of the survey (139 models entered so far), I took a moment to ponder Jaguar math.

On the XKR, Jaguar offers a few overlapping special packages:

Black Pack $2,400

Performance Pack: $3,400

Dynamic Pack: $5,500

Because these overlap, if you order two or all three you’ll save a few dollars.

Black + Performance = $4,900, a $900 savings

Black + Dynamic = $6,800, an $1,100 savings

Performance + Dynamic = $7,500, a $1,400 savings

All well and good so far. But then we have…

Black + Performance + Dynamic = $9,500

So, get the Black Pack with either of the others, and you save $900 or $1,100. But get it with BOTH of the others, and you save only $400.

($9,500-$7,500=$2,000, vs. full price of $2,400)

I had to get creative to bring our site’s logic in line with Jaguar’s logic 🙂
