It looks a bit like it has some Aston Martin's genes
Which Jaguar's model ?
Now your talking... some US V-8s. These are the cars I dreamed of when I was growing up. Love that dash board. So clean and modern looking. Is that a turbocharger? or just a funky air intake?
I'm not an expert in American car, but I like the design. I think this is just funky air intake, no information about it on the description of the auction.
What a beauty!!!! Wow :-) I wouldn’t mind having one of these (in red!) on my driveway...
Pure beauty, it must be a pleasure to be behind the wheel...
