Equipment
5993/450hp, 5-speed, OZ Racing wheels.
Condition
One of 27 road-going XJR-15s (most of the rest were used in a one-make racing series run as a support for F1). Delivered new to Japan. Showing 79 miles. Recommissioned earlier this year. There is a crack in the left marker lens but otherwise this looks like a new car.
Market commentary
Priced at about a million dollars, XJR-15s sold in tiny numbers and their one-make race series ended after just one season, so they faded into obscurity a bit after that. Other examples sold at auction in recent years have brought well under seven figures, but interest in ’90s race-bred performance generally has seen a huge upswing recently. XJR-15s offered privately have reflected that, and this result confirms that $2M for an excellent one isn’t out of the question.
