I remember reading an old Jag advertisement where the jag was compaired with the the 450SL and the Porsche 911 as having better acceleration. The gave the times from 0-60 for each. The target market was the upscale sports GT and not the sports car market of the "E" types. Enzo said the "E" type was the most beautiful car ever built. It is part of the perminent collection in the museum of modern art and the only car to do so.
