Yes the wheelbase is so short on the car it was a certifiable death trap. But God what a beautiful little car. There is a guy that lives in Flowood/Reservoir area that has a yellow one with a black top and I go crazy every time I see it. I speed or turn around just to get near him at a stop light. The sound at idle vibrates your car as most had very very short mufflers basically coming right out of the headers. YouTube videos of the sound coming from these. It is pure heaven. It was considered the "poor man's Cobra" because it had the same engine and transmission as the legendary AC MarkIV Cobra that Shelby also developed.

IMHO, there's never been a better looking car than the Jaguar E-types. However, loved the Aston Martins as well. For a more modern take on the ASton Martins, check out the new David Brown Speedback.
