Cars and Coffee v.2.04 *conflicting emotions*

I HATE IT! I LOVE IT! IT'S PREPOSTEROUS! IT'S AWESOME!

That's how I felt when I was looking over a 1970 Jaguar E-type Coupe that showed this past weekend at Cars & Coffee. It had been heavily modified. The rear fenders widened to accommodate 9" wide wheels, the interior modernized with rear view camera's and a bunch of other custom stuff. But the biggest change was having electronic fuel injection installed on the legendary I-6 along with a supercharger and NOS! Part of me loved it's ridiculousness, but part of me HATED the fact that someone had done this to a car that is so perfect looking in stock form. It was like Adriana Lima getting plastic surgery. Yeah, bigger breast might be cool but you just don't do that. I still haven't made up my mind about the car. But while I work on that you may all enjoy the picks of the pics from this past weekend:

I need to get some seat time in a 458. If it is as big of an improvement over my beloved 430 as everyone says I may not be able to wrap my brain around it.

Wow...nice cars. And that Jag gets a HUGE thumbs up from me. I would have disliked it had he thrown a V8 or some other motor in it...but to mod the I-6 like that takes work.
