Default Overspray disaster. Now here's my second F-type

A few months back some of you may remember this thread.

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f...saster-168692/

I just replaced the totaled 2015 in Italian Red with a used 2016 R in BRG.

Farmington Hills Jaguar in Michigan had one with 600 miles on the odometer with Camel duo/Jet and Camel stitch, Camel seat belts, Vision pack, illuminated door sills, heated windshield,20" Blade forged wheels with Carbon Fiber trim,and Black Pack.

The discount for the 600 miles from new was very substantial

My Christmas just went from awesome to fantastic!

The way the title read made it sound like the same thing happened again to the replacement!

BRG is such an underrated color!

Same thought as WhiteTardis. I was thinking you had some of the worst luck or karma in the world. Congrats on the beauty!

Dang I wish I could edit titles!

We don't see many F-types up here in Oregon and I have never seen a BRG one on the road. I absolutely loved the red and planned on keeping it forever but I thought given a second chance at owning such a awesome vehicle maybe a new direction would be fun.

You'll never get tired of this color. (Now you get to change your signature block).

Indeed - BRG under a full sun is utterly beautiful. I've seen it on an XKR, but never on an F-Type in person so with those curves it will look fantastic.

Scott, when you get a sunny day please take it somewhere suitable and get some decent car **** photos for us for the photo thread!

It's really hard to capture the depth of the paint well, but Flinger's first photo here is pretty close: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f...6/#post1331335

You probably got such a discount because no one in this state buys the damn things. It's sad really. I never see other F-types. Maybe have seen a half dozen since they came out?

It's been at the dealership since last April. I got it for almost $24K off MSRP. That would never happen here on the West coast.
