Default I'm now one of the pack - picked up 2016 F-Type S with MT



Traded BMW 550 for new F-Type S MT. Red performance seats, black centrifuge rims, black pack and visual/comfort packs. I used to have an S2000 and excited about getting back in a two seater with a stick... not to mention a gorgeous sounding exhaust.

Looks great! Congratulations.

(Technically, as cats, I don't think we count as a pack ... more like a PRIDE.)

That's pretty much the opposite as mine, visually. I went with a Coupe instead of convertible, mine is dark, yours light, and although we have the same wheels, mine are light while yours are dark. Even the trim on mine is bright and yours black.

Can't say I fault your taste though. It's like one of ours is the black and white negative of the other.

Enjoy!

Stunning! I would also love to see the red interior with this color combo, very classic!

I went from a 5 series to the F-Type too. Switching from a luxury sedan to the F-Type is a slight adjustment but you will love it!

Interior shots. I thought the red interior made the car stand out a little more than black. Maybe a little silly - but I had the cat logo on the grill and center pieces on wheels put in as red also. I think it makes all our cars have a unique look for each owner.

I agree, a great look particularly in convertible trim! White+red and silver+red are very traditional sports car color combos and I'm a big fan of both.

Congrats and welcome to the F-Type club!

It really does renew (not that it ever really faded but...) the excitement. My son thinks I've become obsessed and I don't disagree anymore.
