2019 XE SV Exterior
Telling the Project 8 apart from the regular XE is easy even for the most nonchalant and lukewarm car enthusiast. The entire body has been reworked, with swollen fenders, exaggerated side skirts, a unique rear diffuser, a quad-exit exhaust, and a massive carbon-fiber rear wing. The latter item can be swapped for a more subtle, fixed trunk spoiler if you get the Touring package. As standard, you also get a panoramic sunroof, and at the front, the LED headlights and signature center grille are the only normal parts of the car. The front fascia features a 'fading' grille with an adjustable carbon splitter below it. Specially developed and aerodynamically enhanced 20-inch forged wheels also help set the Project 8 apart.

Dimensions
The Project 8 has a menacing road presence and plenty of visual aggression that is enhanced by its dynamic proportions. From nose to tail, this super sedan measures 185.6 inches with a wheelbase of 111.6 inches. Width across the body, excluding the wing mirrors, measures 76.9 inches, while the ride height measures 56.5 inches in standard form. Thanks to adjustable coilover suspension, you can lower the ride height at the track for even better ground-hugging stability. However, this car is not as light as you may expect, with the all-wheel-drive system being responsible for a large chunk of its curb weight. This starts at around 3,847 pounds, although options can increase that somewhat.

Exterior Colors
The Jaguar XE SV Project 8 comes in four SVO Premium hues: a clean Meribel White, a menacing Corris Grey Satin, an eye-searing Valencia Orange, a BMW-esque Velocity Blue, and the classic British Racing Green. As standard, you also get the pouncing cat logo in a satin gray finish and stripes to complement it. We'd do without the gaudy decals, however, and the subtler Touring package, fortunately, does away with these, although you can spec them back if that's your style. However, more sedate colors are as standard: Fuji White, Caldera Red, and Narvik Black.
