But if I had it, wouldn't I be terrified that on a perfectly beautiful soft summer afternoon, while driving it on a lovely curving road, some cretin in a crappy, beat-up, rusty 15 year-old F150 would sail through a stop sign and T-bone it?

Re: Let's talk about cars
Bob, I think the article provides insight to your previous question - of the two existing Eagle models they have made five of one and three if the other, so extremely low volume.
Well at least the Eagle reimagining of the E-Type has proper car wheels, not wheels better suited to a motorbike.

The Spitfire.
The Concorde.
The Vulcan.
One is a car.
The E-Type Jag.
Not much else comes close.
Honorable mention to Campbell's Bluebird.
