    Dead honest, I like this better than the e-type. Xk120 is probabaly one of my favorite looking cars ever made but the etype just doesn't do anything for me. This is just flat out wierd enough that I kinda like it.

    Original E-Type design is timeless and almost 60 years later that opinion is still valid, more so then ever before.
    Loewy "improvement" is not timeless at all, might have looked modern and beautiful when created but today is seen as dated and not very successful interpretation of the original (IMO).

    As famous a designer as Mr. Lowey was, some things he should have left well enough alone.
    But he IS entitled to his own taste. :rolleyes:
