With a long line of sports cars to live up to, including legends such as the E-Type and the XJS, the Jaguar XK8 had large shoes to fill when it was introduced to the world in 1996. The design was a rapid departure from its predecessor, offering a sleek and elegant profile coupled with a range of creamy-smooth V8 engines. The interior is well-appointed, with an abundance of wood and leather on offer and the typical old-world charm that was befitting of the Jaguar name. Our featured car is a 2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible with a 4.0-liter V8 engine and 100,000 miles. The current owner reports that the car has undergone plenty of recent maintenance, which will undoubtedly ensure that this modern classic stays on the road for many miles to come.
This 2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible is the perfect example of an old-school Jaguar. It blended luxury with elegance and was ideal for those needing a Grand Tourer with plenty of trunk space for a few golf bags. Our featured car is finished in Pacific Blue and features an electrically operated matching Pacific Blue soft top. It sits on 18-inch alloy wheels that are wrapped in brand-new Michelin Pilot Sport All-Season tires. The cabin is trimmed in white, with power seats upholstered in leather. You’ll also find a matching tonneau cover that can be installed when the roof is down. The interior also features plenty of wood, with a wooden inlay on the center console and large portions of the dashboard. This car also includes its original radio, which is hooked up to a Jaguar-branded compact disc changer located in the trunk.
Under the hood of this 2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible lies a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter V8 engine. The XK8 was rated to produce 290 hp and 387 lb-ft of torque from the factory and has a top speed of 154 mph, with a 0–60 mph time of 7 seconds. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. The owner reports that the car has undergone a recent oil change, as well as new headers, new shock absorbers, new brakes, and new gaskets.

Owning a Jaguar means you appreciate the finer things in life. Being behind the wheel of a Jaguar means you are exposed to a fine balance of performance, luxury, and, most importantly, years of engineering excellence waiting to let loose. Jaguars are most renowned for their grand tourer offerings, and machines like this 2003 Jaguar XK8 Convertible we have today provide a grand tourer experience like no other with silky smooth performance and sleek looks. With a reported 82,000 miles on the clock, this Big Cat is looking for its new custodian to savor the weekend with its top-down and great times ahead.
Introduced in 1935, Jaguar has been at the forefront of the luxury British automobile manufacturing scene. While originally founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company, they migrated to building vehicle bodies and, down the line, rebranded themselves as Jaguar Cars Limited. Jaguar cars are known for their exquisite craftsmanship and performance. Jaguar's most exquisite car, the Jaguar E-Type, was a tremendous success, and they continued this line with the Jaguar XJ and the XK series. The XK was produced from 1997 to 2006 and was produced in two body types. Up for grabs is a meticulously restored 1999 Jaguar XK8 convertible with a recorded mileage of 122,200 and a car to have in any collector's collection.
The legendary Jaguar E-Type of the ʼ60s is considered one of the brand’s most hallowed vehicles of all time. That’s probably why Jaguar didn’t really name a direct successor for several decades, until the F-Type of 2013. Produced until 2024, the F-Type was styled by Ian Callum, offered a V8 under the hood, and had all the classic characteristics of a Jaguar sports car. Yes, you could argue that Jaguar made models with a similar purpose after the E-Type, such as the XJS and XK series, but they didn’t really continue the naming convention for those. That’s why you must check out this punchy 2017 Jaguar F-Type R with its snarling 5.0-liter supercharged V8 and 25,649 miles on the odometer. The car has been chip tuned, meaning that it’s definitely pushing even more power to the road. Two keys are included with the sale of this ferocious cat.
Jaguar’s XJS is widely regarded as one of the brand’s finest classic grand tourers, but by the 1990s, it was showing its age. That’s why Jaguar replaced it with the XK8 line-up. Sleek styling and modern mechanicals were the order of the day, and the XK8 ran from 1996 to 2006 before a second generation was introduced for the following year. Of course, Jaguar knew that they had to do a performance variant, what with the epic V12 that the XJS offered. Cue up the XKR, a supercharged V8 beast with serious power, but still offering that signature iron fist in velvet glove driving experience that Jaguar was known for at the time. This particular 2004 Jaguar XKR Coupe is up for sale with us from Sarasota, Florida, having driven only 43,000 miles in its lifetime so far. It’s also reportedly packing a PPF from front to back, ensuring that its smooth black paint job remains as pristine as possible.
The Jaguar S Type was the British brand’s competitor in the midsize luxury car segment between 1998 and 2007. During this time, Jaguar was under Ford’s ownership, hence the S-Type shares a platform with some Lincoln models, plus the retro-modern eleventh-generation Ford Thunderbird. Featuring new styling by Geoff Lawson, the S-Type quickly gained favor with fans of the brand for its no-nonsense, old-school British luxury mien. Naturally, Jaguar made a hot variant called the R as well, which is what we’ve got for sale here. So, if you want a neo-classic Jag that can really thrill when called to do so, select this 17,600-mile 2003 Jaguar S-Type R as your steed.
The sixth generation or C6 Corvette arrived for the 2005 model year, and while it dropped the pop-up headlamps of the fifth generation or C5, it more than compensated for them in other areas. The Corvette gained more power, performance, and luxury features. Plus, the Z06 variant came with the largest small block V8 engine ever produced at the time: a mega 7.0-liter beast. If that’s your sort of thrill, check out this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 that’s for sale with us right now. This Idaho-based car is reportedly up-to-date on servicing and comes with the Preferred Equipment Group. But what’s more amazing is it packs an STS twin-turbo system, making the car even more exciting to drive.
Sports cars have been seen in all types of forms, but there is one that has always come out on top: Those made by Porsche. This 2025 911 Carrera, with is less than 1,000 miles on its odometer, is a perfect representation of why what Porsche does is better than practically all of their competitors. It encompasses the formula mastered by Porsche over 60 years ago, and if anything, it’s gotten better and better.
The iconic V8 engine has been a dying breed for many years. With each new four-cylinder, the symphony created by V8s of the past gets quieter and quieter. However, you can keep the V8 alive with this: a 2009 BMW M3 with just 72,840 miles — it's a package that is already known as one of the greats. The M3 has been the go-to for those who want the best combination of style and performance, and BMW has proven for decades that they do a damn fine job.
