So, we’re talking about the ‘Austin Powers’ movies, but I’m not gonna hit you with one hundred Austin Powers quotes. We all know them, and you have somehow never seen them, you back and get yourself a good laugh. The 1997 blockbuster took over the world and is still quotable today.
According to Mecum, The 1967 Jaguar E-Type Roadster, “finished in a Union Jack paint scheme with a dark blue interior, the car exudes British pride, whether part of the establishment or the counterculture, and proved to be as outgoing as Powers himself. Driven by Myers and various leading ladies throughout all three films, Shaguar was also used in the Madonna music video for “Beautiful Stranger,” which starred Myers driving the Shaguar. Contrary to many beliefs, only one Shaguar was built for production.
You’re going to need a lot of money to win this auction, we’re sure. You’ll be competing internationally with movie fans and car fanatics. Because it won’t be only movie fans looking to score this “Shaguar”. I’m not a car guy, but pretty bad ass.
What’s your favorite ‘Austin Powers’ movie? Are you an original? Do you think ‘Goldmember’ was the best? ‘The Spy Who Shagged Me’ did bring in the most money, but that doesn’t mean it’s people’s favorite.
