This car delivers an extraordinary 12-cylinder performance level while visually honoring the perfection and sensation of the Series I XKE. The best of both worlds is here. Over 130 lbs weight savings enhance the responsiveness and handling. The engine and drive train deliver incredible power and acceleration that will break the rear tires loose from a 1<sup>st</sup> gear roll while cruising the highways with the engine turning at low RPM thanks to the 5<sup>th</sup> gear overdrive. The increased leg room of the 12-cylinder E-Type, the convenience of air conditioning, power steering and power brakes allow for long distance travel in comfort and ease.
Breathtaking beauty, stimulating performance and a driving quality that begs to be experienced, this is a total sensation that will always continue to visually and viscerally excite.
