This thing is absolutely gorgeous! It makes me feel like I'm cheating on the original Jaguar E-Type which is one of my all time favourite designs. This perfectly proportioned E-type is a tribute to the infamous Jaguar E-Type low drag coupe and it's built by Eagle, a British car company specialized in rebuilding and restoring E-Type jags.
The Eagle Low Drag Coupe is powered by a 4.7-liter aluminum straight-six engine producing 345 hp which should be enough since the car weights just 1038 Kilograms (2288 pounds). The engine is sending its power to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox and the 0 to 100 Km/h (62 mph) sprint is achieved in 4.5 seconds!
Eagle's E-Type low drag coupe is a wonderful piece of art just like its topless variant, the Speedster which was tested by Jeremy Clarkson a couple of years ago. Only one exists at the moment and you need to wait 18 months and have £650k to be able to own one.
We wish that we could tell you more about how it feels to drive this sex-on-wheels machine but unfortunately we didn't. But the guys at Autocar Magazine did! So here's their review of this magnificent ride. You can also have a look at the high res gallery below.
