Jaguar F-Type...

OK, shameless link to another site, but just feel I should share this...


I liked the CX-16 when they presented it, and was a little disapponted when they announced that the F-type would loose the roof...

Have to admit though, seeing these first pictures here:

I'm REALLY starting to like it.

Now if they'd only do a proper manual gearbox in it... going to be HARD to resist that coupe when it comes out

Yep, they "done good" with the styling here and will have to consider this in the future. I traded my 1998 Jaguar XK-8 Coupe for my Camaro. It was a great car, but no regrets on trading...it was time and I love my Camaro. However, 4-5 years down the road, I'll have to see what the Coupe version of this will look like and go from there...

If the Coupe looks as close to the concept as they stuck with the convertible... I won't wait 5 years

Although I do have that Suburban itch to scratch first LOL

Is it just me, or does it look like a stretched out 370Z from the side?
