This is a Jaguar C-X75 brought back to life and transformed into a genuine road-going supercar. It’s the second one customized by Ian Callum’s company—aptly named CALLUM—and it’s also the second to be absolutely stunning.
While the first C-X75 that Callum revamped was a James Bond stunt car fitted with plates and a massive V8, this one is crafted as an authentic road car. A Real Car. It has a fully designed interior, exterior, and all the essentials.
Underneath, there’s still a beastly supercharged 5.0-liter Jaguar V8, powering the rear wheels with all its fury, but now it’s paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
This edition also features different driving Modes. CALLUM’s in-house software team developed a road-centric mode that offers a “neutral, predictable balance through sweeping turns and arrow-straight stability where higher speeds are legally possible.”
For a sportier experience, there’s a dynamic mode, which sharpens throttle response and enhances the exhaust’s tone for a more thrilling sound.
Then there’s the active aero package, which kicks in above 37 mph, including an air brake for added stopping power.
he front suspension has hydraulic lifters to help the nose clear speed bumps and curbs, while the car rides on 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels designed to keep it well-clear of obstacles.
While the first Callum C-X75 involved subtle adjustments to certain panels, this new model received over 1,000 hours of work on its body alone.
This labor-intensive process included refining the panels, painting it a stunning green shade called ‘Willow,’ adding brushed-aluminum window surrounds, carbon fiber accents, and a polished metal grille.
Inside, the stripped-down interior of the stunt car has been transformed into a refined “premium environment” in green and cream tones.
It’s a Real Car interior—luxurious, even. There are no ‘villainous drift’ buttons here. Instead, there’s a pair of custom seats wrapped in Bridge of Weir leather, a solid billet steering wheel, a digital rearview mirror, rotary controls, Apple CarPlay, a high-quality sound system—perfect for playing the James Bond theme on loop—and even cup holders.
CALLUM’s engineering lead, Adam Donfrancesco, explained, “Integrating features like air conditioning and premium audio while balancing NVH (noise, vibration, harshness), refinement, and practical aspects like door seals to keep out the elements—all while ensuring it sounded incredible—was a thrilling but formidable challenge, and the results speak for themselves.”
