Trying hard to keep up with blossoming competition, Jaguar makes significant modifications to its sports car. Changes to the exterior are limited to different wheels, slightly different badging, available (standard on the R) xenon headlamps and some new colors, including a lovely Jaguar Racing Green. The most important alterations lie under the hood, with two new engines managed by a six-speed automatic transmission. Standard safety equipment now includes a stability control system and BrakeAssist. In all, there are 900 changes to Jaguar's beautiful XK.
Edmunds says
Smooth, sleek and sexy, the XK is more of a gran turismo than a true sports car.

Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2003 Jaguar XK-Series XK8 2dr Coupe (4.2L 8cyl 6A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $4.00 per gallon for premium unleaded in Arizona.
2002 Jaguar XK-Series XK8 2dr Coupe (4.0L 8cyl 5A)
I bought my 2002 XK8 in December 2011 with just 47,000 miles on it.
I've never owned a Jaguar but after an exhaustive search for a luxurious coupe and being open to just about anything, I could not find anything out there in a reasonable price range until I started researching the 1997-2006 Jaguar XK series.
It took a while to find the right one, but I finally found a black on black … coupe for sale in Philadelphia.
I drove it 1500 miles over a weekend back to Minnesota and absolutely love everything about it.
Power, handling, comfort, luxury and the most unique and
beautiful styling I've ever seen.
Get one!!
You won't be disappointed
This car is a blast to drive, it handles really well, and has good acceleration. Unfortunately I haven't been able to verify the top speed :), but at high speeds it's still very smooth and quiet. The convertible top produces little noise, and looks great from inside. Jaguar reliability is much better than it used to be, and the AJ-V8 engine and ZF tranny are a very solid combination. … Research the timing chain tensioners however, esp. on pre-2000 models. Oil changes are very easy thanks to intelligently-situated filter and drain. Good amount of trunk space, but the back seat is all but useless for moving people.
After 30 years of driving, this is by far the best driving car I have owned. Recent 3500 mile trip was a smooth satisfying experience (as opposed to other sports cars where I needed to rest kidney bruises). Bought it Select Edition pre-owned. Very satisfied with reliability and efficient warranty repair and maintenance program.
Beautiful, powerful auto. Turns heads
everywhere. Great leather & walnut
inside, but cheap plastic controls just
below that gorgeous wood. Sound system
should be better. Rocket-like
acceleration. Superb handling. 20 mpg
on highway.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2003 Jaguar XK-Series, so we've included reviews for other years of the XK-Series since its last redesign.
