Tie. They're both so iconic and beautiful that can't choose one

Each one is IMO the most beautiful sports car ever produced by their respective countries.  I give the nod to the Corvette; the styling beauty is on par with the Jag but it is better for reliability by far.

The 63’ XKE was an classical design that even the 63’Vette paled in comparison

Larry;

The Jag styling is SO European; the Vette styling is SO American.  Both are stunning; it's hard for me to compare them actually..
