    The top one is a factory E type lightweight low-drag coupe from the mid-60's. Most likely a replica by Eagle cars, as the originals are in the $7M price range, and IIRC only one factory lightweight was built with this particular highly curved trunk. You can see them here: https://www.eaglegb.com/10/eagle-low-drag-gt

    The second car is a 1957 Jaguar XKSS, made famous by Steve McQueen. Jaguar had a bunch of leftover "D" type race cars, so they threw in a few creature comforts, removed the big rear fin and sold them as street cars as XKSS (XK SuperSport). Only 16 were ever made, and 12 remain, so an original is worth about $30M, hence this too is probably a replica, but nicely done.

    Two of the best looking cars ever built.
