One of the prettiest cars in the world, the Jaguar E-Type was so breathtaking when it launched in 1961 that it reportedly was able to even captivate the heart of Enzo Ferrari! Called the XK-E for the North American market, it was made between 1961 and 1974 and offered in coupe and convertible variants. Purists argue that the coupe is the better looking of the two, and if you’d like to join in the discussion, why not get some ammo? Here’s a 1967 Jaguar XK-E 2+2 for sale from Cincinnati, Ohio. It’s a wonderful specimen of one of the most prolific cars of the Sixties and is an excellent future investment too.
When it was launched in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type (or XK-E to us in North America) was reportedly called the most beautiful car ever made. This claim is said to have come from none other than Enzo Ferrari, although it remains to be substantiated. Either way, there’s no denying the impact that the E-Type would have on the motoring world. Long, low and sleek, Jaguar claimed it to have a 150mph top speed. Whether that was true or not (spoiler alert, it was initially not, then it came to be), the E-Type remains one of the most desirable classic cars in the world to this day. So, here’s a lucky find, a 33,219-mile 1968 Jaguar XK-E from Pennsylvania. This Series 1.5 car is a 2+2 and has received some refreshment to keep it at its peak.
Jaguar’s legendary E-Type is widely considered one of the sexiest cars of all time. Introduced in 1961 and styled by Malcolm Sayer, the E-Type is definitely an object of lust. Its long, low hood, raked-back windshield and arrow-like stance all scream speed. Then, its straight six engine growls away and makes such speed a reality. You can experience all those sensations today if you slide into our DMs or call and inquire about this 1967 Jaguar XKE Series that’s for sale. In North America, the car was called the XK-E or XKE, in case you’re wondering about the naming change. The car is in Blue Island, Illinois, and all information in this writeup are as per the current owner of this beauty.
The 2013 Jaguar XKR Coupe represents the perfect blend of British luxury and supercharged performance, delivering grand touring refinement with serious power under the hood. With just 27,680 miles, this example stands out as a well-preserved and highly optioned coupe, further enhanced by the desirable Portfolio Pack. Known for its elegant design and thunderous V8, the XKR offers a driving experience that rivals its German contemporaries while maintaining a distinctly Jaguar character. Finished in Ultimate Black over a rich Truffle and Ivory interior, this coupe embodies understated sophistication with an edge of performance.
A car for those with a desire to be different, this X350-generation 2006 Jaguar XJ Super V8 Portfolio is a 2006 car with styling and atmosphere that can be traced back to 1968. It’s from Jaguar’s XJ full-size luxury car line-up, and wears a sleek Black Cherry coat over a Dark Chocolate interior. The car is fantastic to travel in, for those who covet old-school British luxury but demand some modern features as well. Plus, thanks to its 4.2-liter supercharged V8, it’s also pretty sweet to drive! If you’d like to own this 96,000-mile beauty, it’s up for grabs in Flagler Beach, Florida.
If you’re searching for a classic Jaaaag, this 1994 Jaguar XJS Convertible from Warrenton, Virginia is a fine choice for many reasons. First off, the XJS is one of Jaguar’s finest and best Greatest Hits from their back catalogue. It’s a grand tourer with timeless style, and the choice of a snarling V12 or frugal but still nippy straight six under the hood. Plus, since this 70,000-mile Flamenco Red example is a later-model car, it’s got a bit more niceties on the inside, as well as being a proper factory convertible. Did you know that earlier in the XJS’s life, convertibles were actually made from coupes by an aftermarket outfit, under contract from Jaguar? However, after 1988, Jaguar started making them in-house. That, and many more reasons, including the very near classic status, are all compelling cases to buy this car.
The 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible is a standout example of classic American open-top motoring, elevated by the presence of a desirable GTA-spec 390ci V8. Showing 11,364 miles on the odometer, this Fairlane blends vintage styling with thoughtful upgrades that enhance both reliability and driving enjoyment. The GTA engine—originally associated with Ford’s performance-oriented Fairlane GT/A models—adds an extra layer of appeal, delivering strong torque and smooth power delivery. Finished in light blue metallic over a blue interior with a white convertible top, this car embodies the spirit of effortless cruising with a performance edge.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL represents the beginning of the iconic R107 generation, a platform that would go on to define luxury roadsters for nearly two decades. Showing 27,315 miles, this example stands out with its striking Signal Red finish and classic Bamboo interior—an unmistakably period-correct combination. Known for its durability, smooth V8 power, and timeless styling, the 450 SL quickly became a symbol of success and refined motoring in the 1970s. With both a removable hardtop and a soft top, it offers year-round usability, making it as practical as it is collectible.
This 1971 Chevrolet Nova Coupe is a fully restored and extensively upgraded street machine that delivers both show-quality presentation and serious performance. Showing just 1,656 miles since completion, this build presents as fresh, dialed-in, and ready to enjoy. Finished in stunning Vista Blue using PPG base/clear, the car has recently been cut, buffed, and polished to a deep, mirror-like shine, further protected by a ceramic coating. The all-steel body—including the aggressive 4-inch cowl hood—is exceptionally straight and clean throughout, including the floors, trunk, and frame. With its combination of low post-build mileage, high-end components, and meticulous restoration, this Nova stands out as a turn-key muscle car with both visual impact and real performance credibility.
