Sean , When I saw the Eagle on "Top Gear" the said they only cost around
$250K. As far as an XJ13 you can only get a replica. there is only one real
one and jaguar owns it and their not selling. RCR makes an XJ-13 replica
(in Fiberglas) but hey have an associate in the UK who can make it into an
aluminum bodied car (for $200K give or take.
I had an NSX which I wrecked at 150 MPH ( didn't get a scratch) great car
will get another one some day.
