They were offered in other colors as well.

I've heard those are choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.

An E-type is quite practical for me. There are only two of us, and we drop the top on the current Miata a lot. I don't need to go 185 any more, and with the addition of a Pertronix electronic ignition and Vintage Air I have a fun to drive, beautiful roadster with a boot which will drive anywhere I am likely to go, and is simple enough that I can work on it myself.

I agree with all of that 'cept, I don't want to have to work on it. Being in my garage isn't enough....I want to drive it. That's why I'd go with the Eagle Speedster.

2200 lbs, 350 hp, and it's the absolute dead sexiest thing to ever roll on planet Earth.

Since I don't fit in a split window coupe, thus can't drive it, I'll settle with a 427 Vert.

'70 Dodge Challenger Hemi convertible.



They built 9 of them that year. Four Automatics, five 4 spd's. Ton's of clones around- a real one will command as much as many of the exotics shown on this thread.
