The Jaguar XK8, introduced in 1996, marked the revival of the classic Jaguar sports car lineage. Renowned for its blend of performance and luxury, the XK8 was well-received for its sleek design and advanced engineering. With a perfect mix of style and substance, it quickly became a favorite among enthusiasts and collectors alike. The 1997 model year continued to build on this reputation, offering enhanced features and improved reliability, making the XK8 a symbol of elegance on the road. Regardless of all the facts, the most fascinating thing about Jaguars is driving one.
Finished in Carnival Red, this 1997 XK8 is powered by a 4.0-liter 32-valve Jaguar AJ-V8 engine producing 290hp mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission with 47,161 actual miles. Inside you will find Cream leather interior with abundant use of walnut burl accenting. Additional features include power windows, wood grain accents, memory seats, powered seats, valet mode, cruise control, intermittent wipers, a compact disc changer, and a spacious trunk. Equipped with Jaguar's CATS (Computer Active Technology Suspension) adaptive suspension, light-sensitive headlamps and an automatically dimming rearview mirror. The XK8 convertible boasts an electronically limited maximum speed of 154 mph. It has a fuel economy of 17 mpg city and 24 mpg highway, with a combined 20 mpg. This car uses some of the iconic Jag race car designs with shades of the XKE in its curved body lines and low profile.
