If Batman were to ever be in the market, chances are that he would choose this XKE. Said to have been called, “the most beautiful car ever made,” by Enzo Ferrari himself at its unveiling and one of the most beautiful cars of all time, the infamous Jaguar E-Type, known as the XKE in North America, is among the greatest sports cars to have ever been made. Its looks and power were enough to captivate the heart of John Cena, who happened to previously own this very car according to the current owner, which is in impeccable condition, even after being on the roads for longer than a half-century. The current owner reports a few upgrades and liberties were taken to keep the car on the road, including an engine swap to a 302ci Ford V8, which reportedly has seen nearly 40k miles after. After undergoing a recent tune up, this car is ready to be claimed for your garage, and while you might not see John Cena, you can rest assured that you can see this classic, this is a car that everyone wants to be seen in.
The iconic look and feel of the XKE casts a striking image that oozes power and elegance. The long front stretching out to house the massive engine and the short rear, with the iconic Jaguar emblem, this XKE is set to turn heads wherever it goes. The black exterior adds to this car’s mystique. 18” Strasse wheels, a dual exhaust system with Bullet-style Mufflers pair together to add character to the gorgeous exterior, which is a beauty above all classes. Climbing inside, you’ll find the black exterior color bleeds to the interior. Comfortable leather welcomes you, and the dash with its assortment of switches and dials truly make you feel like you're in a batmobile. The wooden steering wheel has a design refresh from the original, but retains its classic charm, and to ensure maximum comfort, the car is equipped with A/C, a Sony AM/FM/Cassette Stereo system and Bluetooth radio, among other creature comforts.
With a powerful 302ci Ford V8 transplanted, paired with a C4 transmission, this XKE has plenty of power to spare. It also has a few upgrades, including a Holley Four Barrel Carburetor, an Offenhauser intake manifold, HEI distributor, aluminum radiator with electric fan for cooling, and disk brakes all around for better handling. Based on the Jaguar D-Type racing car which bagged the prestigious 24-hour Le Mans race for three consecutive years, this XKE is a true blooded sports car, which you will feel from the moment you set eyes on it, till you feel the engine’s rumble. No sane enthusiast would pass up on an opportunity with a car as this when the chance to claim a car that’s truly special is up for grabs.

One of the most influential cars of the century, the Jaguar E-Type, or XKE as it was known in North America is widely considered to be the finest car ever made by Jaguar Cars to date. When the British luxury automaker debuted the E-Type/XKE in 1961, it quickly made it onto every child’s bedroom wall in poster form. Meanwhile, punters with dough in their pockets lined up for their very own XKE, and little did they know that the car would become an iconic future classic. Today, you can get your very own piece of Jaguar history, by purchasing this 1967 Jaguar XKE from us. The car has been fully restored, recently serviced, and comes with a rebuilt engine. What more can you ask for? All that remains is for you to buy it and drive it.
The word automotive icon is reserved for the best of the best, and very few cars make the list. Looking back at each decade, each one has brought about some iconic motors; the '60s was a lovely time for automotive icons, with a host of automotive legends making their way into history books. Present today is an automotive icon and takes shape with this beautiful 1967 Jaguar XKE Series 1 4.2 Roadster, also famously known as the 'E-Type'. This British classic sees a reported complete restoration and is ready to take your drive expectations up a notch.
The Jaguar E-Type is fair to say one of the most iconic cars to grace the earth. It would be remiss to talk about the E-Type's design without using the often-quoted line from Enzo Ferrari, who said it was the most beautiful car ever made. The Jaguar's smooth throwing lines defined the European motoring in the 60s. Suffice to say, the E-Type turns heads. It's good fun to cruise around town in an E-Type, looking all smooth, suave, and sophisticated. This is your opportunity to experience it with this original example of the 1970 Jaguar E-Type SII Roadster. The owner claims it boasts 13,000 original miles and retains its original engine and transmission. This multiple award-winning specimen is now available for sale with its Heritage Certificate original owner’s manual.
Jaguar’s XJS is widely regarded as one of the brand’s finest classic grand tourers, but by the 1990s, it was showing its age. That’s why Jaguar replaced it with the XK8 line-up. Sleek styling and modern mechanicals were the order of the day, and the XK8 ran from 1996 to 2006 before a second generation was introduced for the following year. Of course, Jaguar knew that they had to do a performance variant, what with the epic V12 that the XJS offered. Cue up the XKR, a supercharged V8 beast with serious power, but still offering that signature iron fist in velvet glove driving experience that Jaguar was known for at the time. This particular 2004 Jaguar XKR Coupe is up for sale with us from Sarasota, Florida, having driven only 43,000 miles in its lifetime so far. It’s also reportedly packing a PPF from front to back, ensuring that its smooth black paint job remains as pristine as possible.
Jaguars are the big cats of the automotive world—majestic yet capable of a powerful bite when provoked, much like this 2009 Jaguar XKR. With only 32,000 original miles on the clock, this performance-oriented grand tourer is perfect for effortless Sunday cruising, with a dash of exhilaration when the mood strikes. These XKR Coupes are rare to begin with—fewer than 1,200 were produced worldwide for the entire 2009 model year—and finding one with such low mileage is an even greater challenge.
During the Nineties and Early Two Thousands, Jaguar made a nice grand tourer called the XK8. Intended to draw upon Jaguar’s heritage XK badge that saw many iconic Fifties and Sixties sports cars emerge from the famous British automaker, the XK8 would also get a snarling supercharged variant, badged the XKR. As time went on, the XK8/XKR are now becoming future classics, and it’d be a great time to snag yourself one. Here’s a great example, a 137,190-mile 2001 Jaguar XKR Convertible in all its supercharged glory, waiting to thrill you on every drive.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
What do you get when you imbue an Eighties car with Twenties (no not Twenty Twenties, but Nineteen Twenties) styling? That’s precisely what Excalibur aimed to do. This Milwaukee-based outfit was the work of Clifford Brooks Stevens, who initially designed the cars for Studebaker. Stevens subsequently formed a company to create them by himself. Sadly, the project wasn’t as successful as all involved would have expected, and after several failures, Excalibur folded in 1990. Of course, that hasn’t stopped others from creating replicas, such as this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica. Built on a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis GS chassis, this 17,688-mile automobile awaits its new owner in Williston, Vermont. It is often said that imitation is the best form of flattery, so the fact that someone built a replica of the Excalibur means that the car is worth checking out. If you’re the kind of person who lusts after the quirky and isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of what many consider a ‘classic’ or ‘modern classic’, why not buy this car and become its custodian?
The Chevy Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie’s contender in the compact car space between 1962 and 1979. It was quite a departure from Chevy’s other offerings that included full-size and midsize cars, plus sports, muscle and pony cars. Nevertheless, the Nova was a best-seller throughout much of the Sixties, since it represented affordable motoring for the masses who didn’t want a land yacht of epic proportions and eye-watering price. Now, the Nova is a great classic car, as well as a fine restomod platform. This particular 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a great example of the latter category, as it’s undergone a full restoration and has just 400 miles on its stonking new motor.
