    The F-Type (especially the R) is stunning in every way. And I agree - the real wheel drive and hydraulic steering found in the 2015 R is the ultimate model.
    Great review! You just added a Subscriber.

    Would the M4 not compare? The M4 coupe comes in around the F-Type as far as base price goes, is available in both coupe and convertible variants, as well as somewhat similar transmission options. The M4 is clearly a 2+2 (having owned an M4 I can tell you the rears are useless as with most 2+2s) however the F does have the AWD. I just find it odd to compare the A/S5 and not the M4 to the F. Great video none-the-less.

    @joeguitargod 9 років тому +1

    Excuse me for being a stickler, but when you were describing the moonroof "cover", you described it as being "opaque so it does block out all the light." Opaque means that some light does come through. Just thought I'd point that out. Still, a great video, as always.

    • @saintllamahandz1688
      @saintllamahandz1688 9 років тому +1

      +joeguitargod No, opaque means no light goes through. You are thinking if the term translucent. :)

    • @joeguitargod
      @joeguitargod 9 років тому

      SaintLlamaHandZ Wrong. Opaque means that light does come through, but not images. Google the two terms to see the differences. :)

    The F-Type also can be compared to a BoxterS and CaymanS. You might mention that cargo space on the F-Type convertible is nearly non-existant.

    He mentioned that with supercharged engines, doing repeated 0-60's in hot weather will see a decrease in time. Is that a permanent thing, or just during the time you are in those weather conditions? I'm not hip to the science of supercharged engines and the pros/cons so I open to an explanation. Thank you in advance!

    Hello Alex. I noticed many auto journalists tend to compare this to the Corvette Stingray. Did you leave the Corvette out since it's not quite the luxury sports coupe? What about comparing it with the Nissan 370z? Looks like the rear pillar visibility is just as bad. In your Mustang GT review you compared it to lot more coupes, both 2 and 4 seaters. I presume the F-Type is the most refined of the bunch.

  • @Jazzzon777
    @Jazzzon777 7 років тому

    Hey Alex, I have quick critique/ recommendation. It would be cool if you told us more about the personality of the cars like Everyday Driver does rather than "It handles better than...". Your videos are so, so thorough. You are just missing that little bit.

  • @sheridanbucket
    @sheridanbucket 9 років тому

    gotta ask... why the SLK and not the SL? I thought Jag was touting this as an E Series successor for style and prestige, primarily to compete with the 911 and SL. Possibly even the Corvette. You got my attention comparing it to a Z4 and SLK.

    • @AAutoBuyersGuide
      @AAutoBuyersGuide  9 років тому +1

      +sheridanbucket Mainly on price, the SL is considerably more expensive.

  • @JMotorCity
    @JMotorCity 9 років тому

    Alex, you should do one of your engineering explanations on the topic of turbochargers vs super chargers, vs twin turbo and cars that have both turbo and supercharger. History of turbocharging would be interesting as well. I remember my parents had a turbocharged '86 LeBaron GTS that burned through three of them. Apparently in those days you could not let them idle for any extended period of time. Anyway, would be great to have an explanation of the differences of these types as well as how the engineering has improved since the 70's and 80's. Thanks.

    None of the other cars compared can hold a candle to the looks of the F-Type. And you buried the lead, the fact that the reviewed car has a manual transmission. When I was searching for information on manual F-Types your video didn't pop up. I just bought a 2016 3.0 S with manual, it is optioned almost identically to this car, should arrive in the next couple of days.

    • @luclapierre7621
      @luclapierre7621 5 років тому

      Z06 if you like aggressive styling, want to blow everyone's doors off and be king of the road. F Type of you're leaning more towards comfort, style and interior quality.

    @MrNosreme70 5 років тому

    Comparing this vehicle to any Audi is like apples and oranges. They're totally different cars. You want to compare this to a Corvette, a Porsche, or something along those lines. It's a sportscar, not a luxury sedan. The AMG was a perfect comparison, actually. The AMG is faster and handles better, but personally, I like the Jag better. I do appreciate the level of detail you provided in this review, it was very helpful.

    Hi, AlexOnAutos team. I don't know if you guys can make this happen, but im gonna ask any way. When you guys are showing the interior, could you put the car in a dark garage or film a small portion of the interior shot at night - to show how the interior dials and knobs light up (or don't light up) at night. Please also show reading lights and any lights along the door seals.Also, please show how the exterior lights "behave". This would be greatly appreciated. I love your in-depth reviews, otherwise. Keep up the great work!!!

    Hi, Alex. How does it compare to Cayman?

    • @AAutoBuyersGuide
      @AAutoBuyersGuide  9 років тому +5

      +Zi Wang The Cayman comparison is similar to the 911 comparison to be honest. The weight balance is the biggest difference and the Cayman is still rear heavy despite having the engine in front of the rear axle vs behind it as in the 911. The Jaguar comes across as a hair more polished and a little more forgiving.

    • @lostol7571
      @lostol7571 8 років тому +1

      +Alex on Autos you definitely confused about the 3 cars, I own an 911, a Cayman and the F-type, and you cannot be more wrong about the balance and agility of the Cayman compared to the 911...heavy on the back give me a break!!

  • @22358
    @22358 9 років тому

    Love the F-type but the Corvette is more powerful, get better MPG and cheaper to buy and maintenance in the long run. Even it doesn't has the luxury brand name but the interior is really good. But it is in between the F-type S and the F-type R.

      @bobhope4288 9 років тому

      It turns out India's (Tata's) sense of humor is more germanic than the Germans. They build a 550hp rwd monster with hydraulic steering, then they take it away and say "AWD, electric steering and automatic only!"
      They let people have a taste, to get them hooked, like a good dealer. Then they laughed at the sorrow as they took it away for no reason. They seem to find that kind of thing entertaining, I guess.

  • @marinoint
    @marinoint 9 років тому +4

    I think the Porsche Cayman S is a better value than the F-Type too; a well-equipped Cayman S is about $85,600. Yes, the optional exhaust of the F-Type sounds better than most sports cars, but everything else the Cayman S is hard to beat. Exterior styling is very subjective, I love the rear design of F-Type, but I prefer the shorter hood of Cayman.

    • @luclapierre7621
      @luclapierre7621 5 років тому

      I was fortunate to spend a decent amount of time driving both. Cayman is objectively better but I enjoyed the F Type much more, so that's what I bought.

Having driven a 95 YJ Wrangler for 20 years, I figured I might kill myself with extra power. BRG with tan convertible top. You are right about the convertible... it's far more beautiful than the coupe. You are also right on the vision pack... it's suicide without the lane change warning. Cheers and impressive. Well done.
