2019 | Jaguar XE SV Project 8
Seller's Introduction
This used 2019 Jaguar XE SV Project 8 stands as a testament to Jaguar's relentless pursuit of performance. With limited production of 300 units, its 5.0L V8 engine ensures 0-60mph in 3.3 seconds and lays claim to a Nürburgring production sedan lap record. Coupled with an adjustable aerodynamic package and unique silicon nitride ceramic wheel bearings---a first for any Jaguar---it offers an unparalleled blend of power, pioneering technology, and luxurious comfort. This vehicle truly symbolizes Jaguar's legendary racing heritage and offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of automotive history.
Overview
Jaguar's 20th century sporting heritage stood resplendent with poster cars. Races won and records held featured heavily from D-type and XK150 Le Mans winners of the mid-century to cutting edge XJR-15 and XJ220 1990s supercars. The manufacturer's renown for rarified high performance tapered into the 2000s, though not without luxury car production touting S trim. For 2019, Jaguar's Special Vehicle Operations set about restoring Jaguar's prowess as a sports car powerhouse with an unprecedented transformation of its XE sedan.
The resultant Jaguar XE SV Project 8 arrived with production limited to 300 units globally. Exterior color selection offered three standard choices or five SVO Premium Palette shades, while cabins came well-appointed in dark leather. Though no expectations of a luxury super sedan went unattended, equipment justifying the $150,000 premium over its high-volume counterpart lay underneath. The Project 8's supercharged and intercooled 592 horsepower 5.0L V8 propelled a chassis refined for focused track-use. Working in tandem, its electronic torque-vectoring differential and adaptive suspension put down power received from an eight-speed automatic transmission. So well coordinated were the sum of its parts, the Project 8 laid claim to the title of fastest production sedan around the Nürburgring in the year of its introduction.
This 2019 Jaguar XE SV Project 8 is finished in SVO Premium Palette Corris Grey over Ebony Windsor leather and suede. Optional interior amenities soften the car's high performance edge including 825watt Meridian surround sound with 10.2-inch touchscreen CD/DVD Player and Smartphone Pack. Head-up display and GoPro pack extras compliment track-tailored magnesium seating under a fixed moonroof with power shade blind. Exterior optional Project 8 decal stripe, SVO Special Effect Paint, and 20-inch 5 split-spoke style 5096 wheels in Satin Grey coordinate model-specific bodywork. Carbon fiber abounds from adjustable front splitter and rear spoiler to side skirts, diffuser, and accent trim. Its raucous V8 soundtrack accompanies every drive for a truly thrilling four-seat experience. With an odometer reading of just 5,893 miles from new, this Jaguar benefits from status as Certified Pre-Owned inventory, a clean Washington Title in the selling dealer's name, and a clean Carfax report.
