Default Introducrion

Good evening!

I am a first time Jag owner! I just picked up my first Jaguar, a 2018 F-Type R from South Florida. My wife and I were looking for a third, 'fun' car. We test drove Lexus, Mercedes, BMWs...but couldn't find anything that fit us.

Until we drove the F-Type.

I came across one almost on accident while looking through the listings at a local dealership in Florida. When I hit the gas and the car threw me back in my seats and I heard the crackles and bangs from the exhaust....I knew that would be my next car. I had to wait five months for the right speced car in the right color to come along, but it finally did.

I took my new F-Type on a road trip this weekend and could not stop grinning. The wife has already told me she's stealing my car whenever she gets the chance. :-D

Ooo! I do like that color! Not the typical Booorrring white or gray.
Congratulations to your and your wife on your First Jaguar!
Whenever I drive mine a smile creeps across my face too. Even after 7 years ownership. I think it's just one of those things that Jags do to people.

Thank you!

The color is what took me so long to buy an F-Type. White, blacks, and grays are fine, but if I'm buying a sports car, I want it to be a fun color! I had my heart set on either the burnt orange or bright blue. When this lovely specimen popped up with the blacked out roof and partial black wrap, I knew I'd found my car
