My lease return,I knew they would keep it...I mean if you're gonna keep a clean F-type, why not this one?

It was front and center and on the point...that's used carspeak.

When you say "On Order" ... are you saying its coming from the factory? If yes, what's the eta?

Yes, factory ordered.
Audi representative Vincenzo Francis has been keeping me updated, the car just finished production and will be loaded on a ship headed this way next week, I should have before Christmas...Woo Hoo!

Was fun for sure, best looking angle is the 3/4 shot from the rear.

340HP base supercharged V6 certainly felt way more peppy off the line than the S5 but I will love the Audi even more I think.

I factory ordered this car too, MSRP was just under $75K and the residual was $45,980 so basically lost $30K in value in 3 years...I know, OUCH!
Pretty common for higher-end sports cars though, especially Jaguar...was completely trouble-free.

I have always loved the design of the F Type. I would have considered getting one if not that I was tired the 2 doors thing.

This to me is the best angle of the car, could benefit from a drop.

It is a great looking car but the Jag reliability has always kept me away.
I hear they're doing better these days.
