Great car that Jag F-Type, enjoy! |
I was considering the same -- but I couldn't justify the cost of the F-Type.
The one I was looking at was $83,000 -- and it was automatic, which was a compromise for me. But, still, bad ass ride so I was considering it. But still 340HP for $83,000 (????).
0 down / $1150 a month lease. It was just out of my price range -- because the residual value was too low in my opinion. They just don't hold their value.
Honestly....if I had that kind of cash I'd look at a loaded M3 -- 0 down $900 a month all day long. They love to lease those |
The F-Type S is a bit underpowered and overweight for $80k+ if you are looking for just performance. You get one for the driving experience, style, and British heritage. Just like how we chose to drive our F30s and F80s over the vastly superior in performance and similarly priced Corvettes. It's not all about speed.
