So I've started my search for my first F-Type...
probably looking for a 2016-18 F-Type Base or S. It'll be a daily driver. Not sure if it'll be MT or AT yet. I've test driven a few ATs and when using the paddles if felt responsive enough to be fun when i want that feel without having to be annoyed with a MT when stuck in traffic. Also, leaning towards AT because MT is difficult to find.... I've only come across one that's available (well, not quite available, but might be in the next few days).

I'm looking for any advice you can provide on what I should look for when reviewing the previous owned cars. in your opinion, must haves? anything i should avoid? red flags? etc.

 

I think there are 483 threads along the same line as yours. Save yourself a lot a grief. Do the research. Learn everything you can about the car and its equipment and features, then when you see one that "clicks" buy it. Don't be one of those people who say I want a Firesand with MT and Ceramic brakes or nothing. My 2¢.

 

Thanks... i've been reading so much about is over the past few weeks i think i know what i need, want, and don't want. Monitoring the used car sites are also helping to see the trend in price and options out there so i have an idea of what to knock off my list.

so far i'm down to a 16-18 V6 coupe. White, Grey, or Silver. S or not work, but needs the vision package. really like the British Design edition....but rare and don't think its available in white. MT.... Possible... just found 1 yesterday that is't ready to sell yet (the dealer is working on the buy back). Hopefully they get it and i can drive it this weekend.

 

Good luck. I found my BDE a month ago.

 

just found one similar to that in TX. Possible contender in my search...

 

i feel like Santa....
I've been building my list, checking it twice (3, 4,5 times)
crossing off the cars that have been naughty (or sold)

with i could get more then one!!! there's a white with jet/ivory stitch one i really like, a metallic blue one with jet/blue stitch, a silver one with red interior....

so many choices and not enough space (or money!)
