Eagle speedster (Jaguar)

Ok I just saw this car on Top Gear tonight and I gotta say it is absolutly stunning. It is a perfect E-Type IMO. I had not ever heard of the car till tonight but I gotta say it's at the top of my fantasy garage list.

The one on TG was brandywine red and was stunning.

Wow, always considered the E-Type the height of automotive gorgeousness, but this thing rises to the level of the angels. When I get to the pearly gates, I expect to see one of these purring on the other side.

soooooooo beautiful!

although, a number of years ago, Top Gear showed an old DB5 and an EType that had been updated with a more modern motor and running gear. Honestly, for the money, I'd rather have that.
