Hi,
My name is Yousef, I purchased a 2015 F-Type R exactly 4 weeks ago, and I'm simply in love with this car. I've been thinking about getting a Vantage V8 for a few months. However, the price vs. performance numbers didn't add up well, plus getting a naturally aspirated performance car here in CO isn't the best idea.
I went to a dealer to purchase a Range Rover for my wife, the dealer posted options that it didn't have. As I was leaving the dealer I spotted a few F-Types, they had about four, but only 1 R. I ended up driving it home that day.
I have a very good background regarding performance cars, owned a quite a few high end cars, but interestingly enough I didn't know much about the F-Types. In fact, I've probably seen 2-3 total here as long as a I remember. Test driving this car for a few miles was enough to make me get it. The F-Type shares the garage with a B8.5 Audi S4 (well modified), since getting the R, my S4 went from being an amazing car to not so amazing car.
Yes I still have to buy a Range Rover for my wife, and no, she wasn't upset at all.

Hello, Yousef,
Good woman, your wife! Now your job is to let her drive your new F-type. Of course, if you do that, you might end up with the new Range Rover! LOL
Congratulations on that new Jaguar by the way.

Welcome.
The F Type is really HERS, you just need to be reminded of that fact a few more times.
Well done and good luck.
