Jaguar F-Type – Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More
The Jaguar F-Type may be getting a bit old, but it’s still one of the best looking sports cars on sale today. Available as either a convertible or a coupe, the F-Type comes with either rear or all wheel drive.
Although other engines have been offered in the past, the F-Type now only uses V8 power. Both supercharged, there’s a choice of engines that make all sorts of snarling, crackling, V8 noises.
Jaguar F-Type Convertible vs Lexus LC Convertible: Beauty and the Beast
It happens at a suburban intersection.
There’s managing editor Mike Schlee ahead, soaking in the rays in the Jaguar F-Type convertible. I’m watching it all unfold from the interior of the Lexus LC droptop behind. A high-schooler is crossing the street, and I’m happy to tell you he’s got good manners.
“That’s a very nice car, sir,” he says to Mike. So polite. Less polite is that, in his focus on that low British two-seater, he’s not aware of the collision course he’s set himself on with a woman coming the other way. She’s not aware either, because she’s not-so-discreetly got her phone out to snap a photo or two of these drop-dead-gorgeous drop-tops.
They collide. Both utter that most Canadian of words—and then grab another glance of the cars.
