In the third and final installment of the English spy series -- due out July 26th -- Destiny's Child's bombshell Beyonce Knowles will star as Foxxy Cleopatra, a stylish and streetwise detective who joins forces with Powers to battle Dr. Evil.

On top of that, Cleopatra and Powers will do their crime fighting in the new Jaguar XK8, which was unveiled at the New York International Auto Show on Wednesday.

"The sensuous curves, powerful engine, and imposing stance of the XK8 make it the ideal mode of transportation for a character like Austin Powers," stated VP and GM of Jaguar North America Susan Callaway, undoubtedly with her tongue placed firmly in her cheek.

The Jaguar, painted in the Union Jack, has been Powers' car of choice since the series began in 1997. Back then his shagadelic mode of transport was the Jaguar E-Type, a stylish number full of prowess that was first introduced in the early '60s.
