Default New Member Intro

Finally took some decent photos of the car after a detail on Sunday, and figured I'd post a few and introduce myself after lurking on the forum for a bit.

I got the car 2 weeks ago, and absolutely love it. 2015 V6S Coupe in Lunar Gray with the Premium + Vision Pack. I've been on a couple canyon runs with it, and have been extremely impressed with the performance. Can't wait to join in on a few meets and get to know everyone.

Nice wheels, literally and figuratively (propeller wheels in short supply around here). Lovely, classy, colors and welcome to the F-Type Forum!

I'm seriously considering it. I need to put some miles on her. I'll reply in the thread if I'm going to make it no later than end of this week. Thanks!

Welcome, Biernut! It's redundant, but it needs saying anyway: Beautiful car!

I must say [add] that as much as I love British Racing Green and, of course, my Stratus Gray, your Lunar Gray is my absolute favorite color and think it looks positively stunning. If my wife's BMW wasn't silver I do think that that would have been my second choice but, of course and as I've said countless times in this Forum, there is no bad color [combination] in the F-Type.

Happy driving.

Love the color combo. FWIW, I use Wheel Woolies on the propeller wheels - the medium one on the front wheels (bigger rotor to get around), and the large one on the rear wheels.

Great tip, thanks! The brake dust accumulation is pretty extreme, and I find the wheels do need cleaning every couple of days.

Thank you sir! I do agree that the Lunar Gray highlights the lines on the car very well, but as you mention there are no bad color choices with this car. I'm a big fan of your Stratus Gray as well.
