Default Can you guys please make an effort to look cool in your F-Types? Thanks

So I've seen about five F-Types in LA so far in the last few months.


1. Driven by a youngish nerdy looking guy. He looked like a video game developer or something. Definitely hurt the brand.
2. Driven by a cool looking young dude.
3. Driven by a chubby slob middle-aged neckbeard type.
4. Driven by some unstylish old guy.
5. And then today I saw a celebrity's (that young latino guy from Desperate Housewives I forget his name)


That's like a 40% cool rate (33% if you include my Jag in the survey). What happened to the days when Jags were driven exclusively by cool people and celebrities?


Try to make an effort to look cool before you go out in your F-Type so you don't hurt the brand.

Do you have a 1950s style fedora with a feather in it?


Actually I don't really know what cool means anymore.

Maybe I should just get the windows tinted dark so no one can tell what I look like

Tint all the windows so dark that people think there's no human in there and the car has become sentient. Like that black car in 80s movie The Wraith

First, you have to define cool.

Post a selfie and let's take it from there.

It's not cool to want to be cool.

oh I'm not cool. I was hoping to leech off of other cool people's coolness, by association.

It's all int he mindset. Convince yourself you are cool and you will live up to the mindset.

Look dinner suits are on sale.

Steve McQueen, James Dean and Charlie Sheen are cool. The rest of us are douches trying to keep up with the Jones' lol


See what I did there?

As I posted in another thread, if you drive a Jag you are cool by definition.

I actually like the "nerdy guy" commercials Jaguar has been putting out with Nicholas Hoult.

I did that but I don't have an F-Type. I think I'm cool though.

If in Vert with top down, I highly recommend Gucci black leather bomber or Belstaff Leather jacket and Carreras. I get comments on my style from females often. But seriously, Lungary I saw an 80year old women bring her groceries back to her V6 Vert last week here in Marin. Cool? I think so. She looked like she was a hottie back in the day.

If I have to start buying designer crap to drive the car, it's for sale!! Kidding. I'll just remain the bum with the nice car.

If I have to try to look like a Hipster, or Will Smith in Hancock, shove it.
