Diabolik Jaguar's - E-Type (XK-E)
The Jaguar "E" type (also known as
E-type or XK-E) is one of the greatest cars ever built.
It has style, performance, and pedigree: its
shell was designed by an aerodynamics engineer, it was propelled by a high-spec
version of the famous XK engine, and was based on the 50's Le Mans winning D
type race car.
Best of all, unlike other 'supercars' of its
time, it was a mass-market product: over 70.000 have been built.

Celebrity Cars - Sharon Stone & 1972 Ford LTD
This car is a classic! Looks like it is right off of the set of Casino. Love the white top that matches with the white interior and the white wall tires.

Celebrities and cars - Elvis
Pop culture would have you believe that The King drove only in big pink Cadillacs. After a recent visit to Graceland I was pleasantly surprised that this could not be further from truth. It turns out that Elvis was quite the carguy and his wealth allowed him to purchase some exotic and rare machinery.
.Today, Graceland is a mecca for Elvis lovers. It is not just his house, it is a whole theme park. Inside the main pavilion, across from Graceland, is Elvis’ car museum which shows approximately thirty of his cars. There are the obvious Cadillacs, several Rolls Royces, and then there are some very unique whips.
1971 Stutz Blackhawk
One of more interesting cars at the museum was a Stutz Blackhawk. I had no idea what it was, other than the fact that is may have been based on a large GM coupe. I was right, and here is what Wikipedia has to say about it:
