      Yes, and the music, where it was playing, added to and did not detract from the movie.

    There is no question which is the sexiest sports car ever build. I own mine since 1986, there is simply nothing better

    A nice visual essay of the world's sexiest car, shot from a low camera angle to bring out its “fuselage” design, where the lower body curves under the chassis rather than the rocker panels being squared off. The simplicity of the car’s lines are perfection in form and harmony, conveying its feline power. No cut lines or other decoration are needed. Today's supercars are vulgar and pretentious in comparison.

    I vividly remember the introduction of the Legendary Iconic "E Type" which turned more heads than a multitude of busy barbers It was stunningly beautiful like the Marilyn Monroe of the car world and it was so far ahead of the time and everyone wanted one. No other car before or since has created more allure than the "E Type" which Enzo Ferarri described as the most beautiful ever created

      At facebook.com/NuvolariCrypt/?hc_ref=PAGES_TIMELINE&fref=nf you can see what happens as an E-Type rolls over. Incredible. Eric Falge rolling an E-type at Brands Hatch in 1958.

    I thought the S1 was the 3.8L... No? I can never decide which style I like more, the roadster or the coupe. They are both Dreamy if you ask me.

    Why can they not start making this car again? don't put modern touches to the body don't try to make it better just build this car again, if you going to do anything to it upgrade the suspension leave everything else alone, this has got to be the greatest car ever built, why will they not build this car again?!!?!?!?

    You may ask "What is so special about the E-Type?". Consider the cars debut was in 1961, that's 53 years ago. Go back 53 years from '61 and look at any model car that was manufactured in 1908. Does any car since then look as sexy? Basically , no car in the 106 years of production will turn more heads (male or female) than the Xk-e. In many minds, it remains the epitome of style and sportscar sound. Sure, the AC Cobra has graceful lines, but it's too loud to drive up to The Met,

      Neil McCann Hey, thanks for your great reply concerning the E-type. Glad you liked my video! Hopefully you'll find some more in all
      the videos I have made over the last couple of years. Thanks for your support! Regards from the

      Neil McCann The AC Ace, being the six cylinder predecessor to the nutty Cobra was a far more sensible car, but it was looking old fashioned by the 60s, and wasn't so radically different in its day as the E type was in its. The E will always be the car for me..

    It's such a shame that the really ropy ones are so flipping expensive. A white 1964 one in California costs $67,500. The curves of this thing are like something out of my most beautiful dreams and the sound it makes just gives it an angelic sound giving the impression of an actual beating heart.

    I have a Nissan 370Z sport coupe with a 6-speed manual transmission and I consider it the closest thing I can get to an E-Type Jag at an affordable price. A late model Porsche Cayman might be a close substitute. If I had the money it would be a 4.2 liter S1 E-type OTS.

      Yes we can... how can I better explain it...it would be like someone painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa! No, just NO! I understand you, and people like you, and respect your right to your own opinion. It's just that the E-Type is such a legendary auto...and WE are purest! Your 500 HP 7,500 RPM engine...that needs to be put in a vintage classic Mustang...no harm, no foul!

      The long stroke undersquare low RPMs British shaker engines became totally obsolete the day the oversquare Buick aluminum V8 moved to UK... Even Jaguar realized that and they fashioned the oversquare V12 from the Buick engine...
