Jaguar E-Type "Growler" Concept to Enter Limited Production

http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2011/03/jaguar-e-type-growler-concept-to-enter-limited-production.html

Swedish firm Vizualtech plans to build the first car in the summer of 2012, taking about six months to build each example by hand. The cars will be based on the Jaguar XKR chassis, using the R's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 for 600 horsepower. With a carbon fiber chassis and a weight a shade under 3,500 pounds, the Growler should hit 60 mph in less than four seconds.

Looks interesting (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/cool.gif)

Have to hide that from the missus, she always loved the e type so she'll go mad over one of those.  $700,000 (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/shame.gif), I could have a lot of nice cars and change out of that

I love it, just that the XKR wouldn't have been my chassis of choice (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

My first choice would be a Z06 Corvette chassis, but just imagine that body on a Viper chassis (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/cool.gif)

A viper chassis is not as good as a ZR1 chassis or possible even a Z06 chassis so why would you do that?  Just to get the bigger heavier engine that will ruin the handling?  (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rtfm.gif)

Personally I like it, a lot.
Not giving you 3/4 million pounds for it your understand, but it does look nice...

Think I prefer the front end on the old pic, with the separated round headlights.
