I agree. It's got the looks, sounds, and performance to make it a great car for the price. I'd choose mine in a different color but it's still beautiful.

I can't wait for the production version of the Project 7 to hit the streets (if I ever get to see one in the metal, that is).

Concept with the chopped windscreen:

Too bad it is so heavy. It doesn't stand a chance against the Mercedes AMG GT in any category. Might very likely have a hard time against the Maserati Alfieri.

Sounds like it's fun to drive though. So long as the driving experience is enjoyable, it looks good, and goes like stink, I think I'd be perfectly fine with another car being faster, even if it was by quite a lot.

If I ever had that kind of money.

Garage List
These things are fuggin NUTS to drive! I drove the 2014 before I came on the deployment im on now, while the wife was looking at her Land Rover purchase... I cant get enough of them. Its soo hard to pick a great car to buy now, as there are so many of them, but this makes my short list.

Im not so sure I would take the V8 though... the S would be perfectly fine, and still ripe for aftermarket. Either way the looks dont change from one to another so youur getting a hot damn ride in any trim!

I can't get enough of the exotic looks of this car. I just hope they come out with the rumored manual.

Had a friend sell his F-Type V8S (first one sold in GA) just recently. Stickered at 105K and sold at the auto auction for 78K. Well on their way to affordability for many.

Gorgeous car and sounds amazing but with all those gadgets that's going to be one expensive Jag to maintain.

It's quite nice when buying a used Jag. I picked up a 3 year old XF 5.0 Supercharged with 35k miles last year for half price of new.

The F-type shouldn't be any different in that regard.

Wowzers, I picked up that exact car almost (but with more miles), 3 year old, XF 5.0 SC with 59k miles, and now it's costing me almost the same price as a new one with the transmission and gasket failures.
