Jaguar E-Type spotted in Charlotte, North Carolina

Details on This Jaguar E-Type:

  • Location
    Charlotte, North Carolina
  • Description
    I don't know how I was able to get this shot off. Was going about 60 mph on I-77 north near the southern I-485 interchange when I saw this E-Type stuck in traffic on the southbound side. I whipped my camera out, blindly aimed in its general direction, and released the shutter. To my astonishment it came out better than I could have ever hoped for.

Thanks man! It's strange how some cars can be so common in some areas yet very rare in others.

Very nice find Nick!! I see a lot of these but I know you don't, happy you got to spot one. You pulled the shot off very well.

I saw burgundy colored E-Type Coupe on Rea Rd on my way to Motori Italiani two years ago, and it seems like I saw one in the university area once, but that was a long time ago. I haven't ever been able to make it to Waterbean because for some reason I'm never there those weekends, but I hope to make it one of these months.

Yeah I can't remember the last one I've seen on the streets it's been so long haha. If you're able to make it to Cars and Coffee Lake Norman sometime, there are 2 that show up there fairly often. One silver/gray V12 model and a red convertible.

Thanks man! And don't you know it...it had been about a year and a half since I had seen one of these. I know there are several of these running around Charlotte though!

Thanks Ryan! I can't say I'm a huge fan of it, although it did look better than the light green one I've seen in Raleigh.

Thanks man! It did look a little strange, but this is the first E-Type I had seen in a couple years so I don't really care lol.

Great spot and lucky shot! I haven't seen an E-Type Roadster with a hardtop in person before.

Thanks Luke! I don't usually try to take pictures while I'm driving but I had a crazy 30 minute or so run where I saw an exotic of some sort every couple of minutes. I also hadn't seen one of these in forever so I was happy to get it on camera!

Incredible shot. Same thing happened to me with a Rapide. I saw it a few hundred metres ahead approaching me, so I got my phone ready for a photo and just pressed the button to take the photo, and i was very lucky.
