The 2017 Jaguar F-Type SVR was revealed early; Audi priced the new 2017 R8; and Fast & Furious 8 will be called 'Fast 8'. It's the Week in Reverse, right here on Motor Authority.

We had a hunch it was coming, but Jaguar wouldn't confirm it. Now, we know, because the 2017 F-Type SVR was revealed early via a leaked brochure on the Internet. Look for more details about this fast Brit during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show in March.

Audi priced the new 2017 R8. Want one? It'll cost you at least $164,150 in the U.S. market, and that's not for the V10 Plus model. Opting for the extra power and equipment of that model will hit your pocketbook for at least $191,150.
