You´re absolutely right. Your photos above look nothing like Firesand in natural light. I´ve seen it in person, and it´s an absolutely stunning color. Had I had seen it at purchase time, I would have chosen it.

That´s a stunning car, congrats!

It is utterly amazing that despite seeing a new F-Type on a semi regular basis, it NEVER gets old. Each one seems to have it's own "beauty" if you will.

You are absolutely correct! Looking at all the variations I wonder if I should have tried some other wheels. Mostly because mine are tough to clean.

1) you are correct
2) the convertible is less than 2 years old and the coupe less than that (read: not old)
3) you are correct

Great pictures! By the look of your shadows, you and your friend are both slim as well.

Funny...I was going to say shapely - particularly the woman (whomever she is) - like the car.

That was my feeble attempt at being politically correct.

Part of the "problem" is we've become too politically correct in my opinion. Not to change the subject - although I am - I watched a commercial yesterday [re] a new BMW tearing up the road and it tics me off that Jaguar dropped the brilliant "Villians" campaign after being accused of promoting unsafe driving (particularly after the second "Villians" commercial and the line which clinched it, "now brace yourself").

Gimme a break!

Gorgeous car and love the color. But then I'm biased. Only I like mine topless!

I agree wholeheartedly! I try to play along on the Internet. I'm a peaceful guy by nature when I'm not hunting.
