Default New F-Type R member from Philadelphia

Hey, just wanted to introduce myself and say I've found this forum very useful for research when I was buying my F-Type. Ended up getting a 2105 F-Type R in Italian racing red metallic and I couldn't be happier with it! My last car was a modified 2012 Boss 302 and the F-Type has been a really nice transition. Have not seen too many F-Types in Philly but I did see a black F-Type R hauling *** off of Kelly drive the other day. Think he saw me and greeted me with a WOT and some crackles and pops. Anyway, nice to meet you all!

Welcome! Let me know if you're taking a run to a local Cars & Coffee. F-Types sound great in multiples.

Yes! I have a 1992 907ie and a 2009 Sport Classic. Used to have a S2R1000 monster as well. After experiencing a termignoni exhaust on a L twin motor, Its hard for me to ride other bikes

I hope you will stop by the Chester Springs cars and coffee. Every Saturday at 8AM. Fills up quick so get there early. I have the twin to your car, so look for me. Look at their social media page for the address and more info. Weather this Saturday is looking good.

The first Lancaster cars and coffee of the year is this Sunday. Looks rainy at this point.

Nice! And welcome. I'll confirm your thoughts on a full Termi on the L Twin! F Type goes lovely with it.

Awesome, will def look for you in the future and good to know about the Chester meetup. I was just in the area the other day on 401 which I usually take to the backroads in French Creek Park. Some really nice tight twisty roads around there.

The location is just down the street on Rt113 from the intersection of Rt113 and RT401.

No one said it, but our guy is from the future, buying a 2105 F-Type! Glad to see they're still producing it. I think we've colonized the moon? OK BAD JOKES. But The Expanse is truly one of the greatest shows ever, so there's that.

I am a soft California boy that has been hardened by his best friend here in San Francisco, a true Philly native. You absolutely can not take the Philly out of the guy, apparently.

Welcome and enjoy heartily.
