2011 Jaguar Eagle E-Type Speedster (New Pictures)

A Jaguar remix by Eagle.

-Info-

Eagle, makers of the exclusive Eagle E-Type, showcases the world's most exclusive hand built car - the E-Type Speedster Lightweight - an authentic Jaguar E-Type from the 1960s reworked with more muscular styling, fresh classic detailing, and the performance of a contemporary supercar.

This outstanding car makes its public debut at 2011 Salon Privé, the luxury supercar and Concours d'Elegance, taking place at Syon House in west London on 22nd-24th June, 2011.

Henry Pearman, the founder of Eagle, says of the new Speedster Lightweight: "The elements in this remarkable alchemy are an original Jaguar E-Type, thirty years of dedicated experience, and the absolute cream of our widely acclaimed engineering developments and upgrades."

Eagle has a global reputation as an E-Type specialist, and offers an unparalleled collection of magnificent E-Types for sale, ranging from the earliest original specification dealer launch examples through to fully developed cars.

Beneath the Speedster Lightweight's jaw-droppingly beautiful body, every component has been thoughtfully and skilfully reworked, improved and often lightened resulting in a handmade automotive masterpiece with a weight of just 1000kg. The technical tour de force is the original Lightweight E-Type based aluminium 4.7 litre fuel injected engine and aluminium drive train. While retaining an external appearance identical to the original, they enable the car to offer a power- to- weight ratio matching that of the very latest Porsche 911 Turbo.

I first saw this on Top Gear. I have always been frustratingly disappointed in Americas inability to make cars of beauty and understated sophistication, like when we had Duesenberg and various other long gone classics.

But now it would be pointless to even try. This car is, as Jeremy Clarkson said, perfection...

Ferrari can make all the sexy hyper cars they want that suck the blood out of major organs with G-forces. But even just sitting still the Speedster is the primordial expression of the

easily the most beautiful car ever made.

I'd like to see a modern day version of the Lamborghini Miura and the Corvette Stingray as well. They were 2 other beautiful cars from that era.
