2016 Porsche Boxster S v Jaguar F-Type V6 S comparison | CarAdvice

- It has almost become a landmark moment in our evolution as humans. A neat title to slot in after all that complex baby, child, teenager, adult transition stuff.
The midlife crisis.
More than just a Faith No More song, but a chance, once the children are relatively self-sufficient, the career trajectory is on a clear path and ideally there is a bit of equity in the family home, to put the focus back on yourself for what might not be a particularly smart decision.

Jag wins in appearance inside and out. And that sound... the best sounding V6 and V8. Just amazing.
Jag weighs 400 kg MORE. WTF?
Head says Porsche, heart says Jaguar!
Well said!
Head says Jaguar, heart says Porsche. I follow my heart, that’s why I got it.
M M, head would never agree to buy an English car, dumbkoph! LOL 😹Having a 2016 Spyder shipped this Sunday.
What if your heart and head say the same thing 😊 Porsche all day everyday 4me 🎉❤
Jag weighs too much, 400kg more than the Porker.
I was kinda thinking of my trading my F-type in for a boxter, but a 781 GTS, so flat 6, but then I went outside and saw my car and changed my mind
Should’ve parked next to 781 and then decide
0:37 ''old mans jag'' what is he even talking about? is he insane? the f-type suits all ages
Victor K Stereotypically Jaguars are an 'old man's car'. Think E-type and old XK's.
Sack Of Potatoes E-type yes. Like all vintage cars... This is the F-type...
I've had both cars and you guys are right on the money, but my '17 F Type has an 8 speed transmision which is not slow-shifting, it's delightful. Of course nothing beats a PDK. My Cayman S ('17) had a stick which was as good as it gets. Two magnificent cars: one more for the track, one more for the road. Both beautiful looking as well.
Wich was better in comfort to use as daily?
@@bilgames The Jag.
Two best car reviewers in Australia, you guys should do more videos together.
There was that other one... but Trent was young and needed the money...
Thanks for watching. James and Trent had fun on this shoot - so there will be plenty more to come!
I traded my 2014 Porsche 911 4S Cab in on a 2016 Jag F Type R and never looked back! The Jag is a freaken beast and pulls the Porsche to shame! 550hp, 1/2 sports car, 1/2 muscle car, all luxury and style!
Exactly! Perfect description, I couldn't have said it better myself 😁
Yep perfectly suit me too. I love muscle cars and I love sexy low sports cars. The coupe is drool worthy. I’m buying something special for my 40th birthday, this may be it.
I would never swap a Porsche into a V8 F-type. I could change but then definitely the V6. The V8 feels very nose heavy when driving and I really hate understeer. Its a muscle car and fast on a straight line but the V6 is much more fun.
If you want a sports car, you wouldn’t buy a Boxster. You’ll be buying the Cayman. The Jag is just a better “midlife crisis” vehicle. Smooth, comfortable, exhilarating, and faster than you can likely handle or should be going in any car. Lol
@@dallasstang2818Unless you’re a pro racer and not a bench racer, you can’t tell the freakin’ difference. Cornering at 0.70 g would have a passenger barfing all over the place. Get real. For my money, nothing better than my 981 Spyder. What do you drive? A Mustang, lol??
Do you want clinical, or do you want a car that excites you?? Me too. Give me the Jag!!!
Jennifer Torres no it’s not a cruising car and it’s a lot more fun
I ve the 718s and believe me it is a lot of fun to drive
It’s just not as exciting because it weighs 400 kg MORE THAN THE PORSCHE. I’ve a 981 Spyder, 1315 kg.
I have the F-Type S coupe (which looks better than the convertible). I like the Porsche, but the Jag is so sexy and fun. That exhaust never gets old for me. Its far more fun imo.
Beautiful cars, i love my 718 S but boy do i wish i had that F Type Sound
You don’t have a Porsche it’s too expensive
@@ambitionsskyyyy And the guy cant be rich enough to buy a porsche at all? How did you arrive at that assumption mate😂
Yep another great review. Natural, good mates.....great to see!
the jag is by far the best !! going to buy one very soon.
Someone told me that the analogy of cars such as F Type, Boxster and Nissan GTR to a nightclub business. The bouncer drives the brutish GTR, the manager drives the posing Porsche but the owner has the classy Jaguar.
JAAAAAAAAG all day long ; I would say one of the best looking sports cars today❤️❤️❤️
Jag is “just not as dynamically good”, to sum up this comparison.
Aesthetically, the jag looks brilliant. Dynamically the Porsche wins. Yes, you’re absolutely right 👍
Thats a proper midlife crisis noise😂😂😂
I'm pretty sure the F-Type has an eight speed, not a seven speed like said in the video?
Yes, the F-type has an 8 speed ZF transmission.
Wonderful review with great humor as well.
I bought both!! Both great but different enough to entice for different reasons. Correction i dont have the 718 but the 981 boxster s.
Having both cars, i can say these guys have got a few things wrong, for example the jags auto is not slow, granted it aint a pdk but the best torque converter box in the world, ZF 8 sp.
Bosxter s is 100%, the f type 90% with most other sports car/cars a very distant 50% behind.
Finally someone pointed it out 👍
The ZF is also more reliable and cheaper to fix
So true ,no way is the zf slow,most reviewer say that the differences between twin clutch and zf are miniscule,plus you have the benefits of the torque converter in heavy traffic and everyday use
f type more beautiful
But I got a Boxster S ;-)
I have a large car collection. In that collection i have a Boxster RS 60 w the Sharkwerks 350r kit..... and I have the mighty Jag F type SVR. The SVR is of course much faster. I find myself grabbing the keys to the Boxster much more often then the Jag. I just enjoy the Boxster much more. It has just the right amount of power for the winding roads. The Jag is noisy as hell. The exhaust is very loud. I own many exotics and hypercars. I am amazed at how much attention my jag gets! I even ran into a pic of my jag on someone's FB page with me driving it on the highway! WTF. Anyhow, it's not always about power and speed. In this comparison, I would never trade my Boxster. Oh, and as far as exhaust sound goes, I even prefer the sound of my Boxster. Being the Rs 60 it came with a PSE exhaust from the factory. It sounds like a liter bike in the right RPM range.
But it's less prettier than you
Y’all are thirsty as fuck 😂😂😂 shoot your shots
Ya
Nice contrasting review guys.
The vid's great and all, but it would've been nice to also see the power in both Kw and HP. I understand every country has different standard units, but that would've saved me a consultation with Google. That doesn't keep it from being insightful though. Great vid!
(If you did mention it some where in the vid, I'm really sorry if I missed it. I'm not necessarily the most attentive of fellows)
Great video, but would like to correct one mistake you made. Jaguar has 8 speed automatic, not 7.
Fantastic review boys :DD
Thanks James!
So, Aussies pay $50000 more for the same car, compared to Americans or Canadians. Incredible.
Because we have Democradic socialism 45 yrs , here high consumption tax there is $65000 tax on it , 10% gst , 5% tariffs ,33% luxury car tax ' 3% stamp duty
Try singapore. Every car costs 4-5x of the price in America. It's depressing.
boxster is the best looking roadster and best performance for its range
I owned both a 14 V8 F-type and a 15 Boxster GTS for about a year. Which one did I like best? Whichever one I was driving. They are both great cars, the GTS drives better, but the Jag is just really fun to drive. If you care about gas mileage the big V8 got slightly better gas mileage on the highway than my boxster. That 8th gear really helped for that. I bought both of mine used so they were a great value for the money. It would be hard for me to buy these new and pay that sticker price. If you cant decide, and you have the funds, get them both. :)
Wait a minute
What do you mean by Porsche drives better and the F Type is more fun to drive?
Dude thats the same damn thing, isn't it?
Brilliant Video! Very good synopsis on each car!
Ive got both. A 981 boxster s and a f type v6s...both are great but here is the difference. The boxster is a sports car that can do GT, THE F Type v6s is a GT that can do sports car.
Jaguar is stunning. Porsche is stunningly boring!
boring!? mate that's the word to use for polo and the likes. there's no such thing as a 'boring' porsche.
@Jennifer Torres lol who wants a boxter? Women
Porsche just gives you a better name that's all, and don't get me started on the steering.
Jag is an 8 speed ZF gearbox, not 7 speed. And he says it's a lazy change? He obviously didn't put it in dynamic mode then.
I’d pick the jag all day don’t get me wrong but the smart choice is 100% the Porsche. Jags plummet in value the moment they’re driven and are known to have more issues, not that I’m complaining hugely since that value drop let’s somebody like me in their 20’s own F types by just picking one up 2nd hand for like a third of the price or less and like 20k miles on it.
Absolutely great review! Keep on the good job! And a small suggestion: what about a comparison between the 718 cayman vs the F-Type 2.0t?
the auto in the Jag is a ZF 8 speed!
Great review guys. not too technical, but enough info for a normal dude looking for the vital info. Both cars are beautiful...its a win/win!
One of the best reviews i have watched. But did you just call me stupid at 10:04
Great review gents!!
I'm a Porsche owner, have owned three Boxsters and currently own a 987 along with a 911. I would not buy a 718 with that sounding engine. Test drove one early and hated it. Also found the quality dubious. Plastic steering wheel poor plastics inside. Very disappointing.
eSysman But you'd regret buying the Jag??
Crisis or finely being able to afford something nice you've been listing after since you were 6 years old?
Wow, those are really expensive. For that price I'd rather move to North America, buy either one and have at least 50k for a down payment on a house (or 3 years worth of rent).
I've driven both and getting the F-Type Coupe V6S in Sandfire Orange. It looks, sounds, and drives like a more special/exotic car. I took the 718 Cayman S inside the tunnel and nothing happen even in Sport or Sport+ with optional Sport Exhaust from factory. 4 cylinders sound really soulless and no emotion and drama compared to the screaming supercharged Jag.
I'm in the process of purchasing a V6S drop top in Sandfire Orange myself... I'm SO excited!!
Would’ve been better to compare the Jaguar to 981 Bosxter GTS.
4 pots in a modem Porsche is a bummer to say the least. No way, Jose.
V6 jag is good but it's all about the v8!!!
This is what im stuck between
Yes, oil and water is everything Porsche will let you touch... if you didn't look at this car for more than 5 minutes. But if you do, you can "touch" most things as with every other car - only, you wanna check in the front, not the back. Then, wonder oh wonder, you can check your brake fluid, battery, screen wash, air filter, etc...
Excellent review lads! I have to say (as a Porsche owner) that I can not choose between these two superb cars. I need both!
This is a good video mates.. more please (:
Is the base f-type does the same exhaust note ?
Im old enough to be having a mid-life crisis but years ago I came to appreciate quiet cars. I reckon I'd go mental if I had to listen to the Jag's pops and crackles on a daily basis, as sexy as it may sound. I drive a series I VF Calais V8 by the way.
what are you going to drive in 30 years from now?:0) good job.. i would have gone with F-type
The Jag looks so much better as coupe. No idea why I see it as convertible everywhere.
What the hell is a newton meter??..Horsepower please!!
Nm measures torque. You're looking for pound-feet
Newton meter is the unit for torque ! And horsepower is the unit for power output !
no competition, jag goes head to head with the 911. not the boxster
HodsBroo the base f type costs less than the boxster, and it is slower. Don't forget Porsches do not come with any options, PDK, PASM, parking sensors, and practically everything comes optioned. ( and options for the Boxster costs the same as 911's!)
However, to compete against the 911 turbo, you need the F type R.
Ps. I have a 2009 Boxster S and a 2013 F type coupe 3.0L
HodsBroo I must say, the 718 Boxster and cayman sounds really terrible though, especially compared to older 987 and 981 Porsches.
Jag wins my vote on this one.
In Australia the Porsche 911 is about $250000 drive away, way more expensive than jaguar.
HodsBroo Porsche with 350 hp makes 0-100 un 4,2 the jag with 380 hp and 400 kg less 5.1... Jah is a JOKE JAJAJA
the Turbo S demolishes the F type R, it's not even close
there are plenty of vids on that especially the 991.2
Best option is a last generation 981 Boxster/Cayman S. Then you get the exhaust note along with the German precision. The 718 loses some of the experience from a sound perspective with the turbo four compare to the last generation's naturally aspirated flat six. Unless, of course, you're opting for the 718 GT4 or Spyder, in which case you still get the flat six and that great sound.
One would pay how much for those wheels on the Porsche?? Eee gad!! Thanks for the excellent video quality and the good reviews. A few more with Tegan would be nice, just sayin'. ;)
+Anthony Brennan - lol, they aren't really a $20k option. Although we're sure Porsche would give it a try if they could.
He he, you bet they'd try it!
Options are taxed 10% gst , even delivery tax is tax gst
You guys are great! When it comes to car reviews, noone, especially not here in Germany would think of two skippies doing the job that well! Hope I will see a lot more videos from down under! All the best from Porsche land :-)
Awesome video 👏
The boxster is the best looking Porsche out there, but no match for that gorgeous jaguar
best 718 vs XYZ comparison so far! and definitely I have watched all 718 videos on UA-cam.. :D
The Jag looks and sounds better, but I'd go with the Boxster for reliability and handling..
LOL ..Reliability ? ... don't swallow the "German engineering " sales talk ... they have loads of
very expensive problems , but the press are very reluctant to talk about it ...Wonder why ? !
Reliability in a European car, 😂 😂, good joke !
Definitely the Jag exactly because its imperfections!
But the manual! It is a shame to have roadster with automatic!
Porsche always wins, no exceptions…
Jaguar is far more sexy and fun. Get the coupe though vs convertible
At 7:01 he says the jag is a seven speed??? I thought it has an 8 speed ZF? did jag change the gearbox this year or something???
The Porsche is absolutely the better car, but the Jaguar is the one I want.
I'm 28 and I just bought a 2016 F Type S AWD, definitely not an old man's car!
What made you pick the awd over the rwd?
@@ryants1 I much prefer the stability/traction of an AWD. RWD is fun and all, but I just know I'll lose the back end one day haha!
give me the jag all day mate, its far better looking than the boxster, better interior by far, front engine beats that rediculous mid engine nonsense all day imo, boxster ok 400 kilos lighter but jag will actually protect you far better in a crash, boxster has fuel tank at front which means in a front impact crash it splits spills fuel everywhere & then catches fire, paul walker would of survived his crash if he had been in a jag & not a porsche, porsche sports cars are not safe in a crash so i will take the extra weight as it comes with extra safety even if it cost 10-15k more. porsche put performance before safety, safety should always come first no exceptions.
Slow gear changes on the F Type! Not true at all. It’s basically a PDK like the Porsche except we get 8 gears versus 7 in the Porsche. Maybe try sport mode?
Gotta go w the Jag because of the sound.
nice review 👍
thanks for the advice ...
For practicality and instant fun with precision and COMFORT. Porsche in general
For a loud fun drive thats an attention grabber. Jaguar F Type.
Im really happy this video was made as next year i get to upgrade my car and i was choosing between the Jaguar AWD V8 F Type, Porsche Cayman, Porsche 911 Carrera S, Mustang GT350, Hellcat, Porsche Macan Turbo, Corvette Z06, (ik this sounds silly for car guys) Tesla Model X (id wrap it an olive type green with black rims), and i feel like im missing one more car but, these roughly are the options ill have for my next car. And honestly i think im going to stick with the Jaguar as my dad used to have a couple Jags and my brothers had one so ig why not haha! Im just not excited because ik one flaw about all Jags.... those fucking seats i can already tell are yet again shitty while everything else looks good. But im only 18 so im more of looking for a car that will always throw a smile on my face especially when i downshift... i think Jaguar takes the W there (:
And how much are both those cars worth now secondhand ?......Jaguar = almost zero, Porsche = loads of money. Wonder how the Indian built version will be like.....? Not as daft as it may seem they have just moved the production of the Landrover Defender from the UK to India. Also second hand market is flooded with f types, I wonder why nobody wants to keep them ?
Jaaag😍........no comparison
He just said the jaguar f-type is 176k? What currency Is this?
Jag, all the time. Beautiful car.
Are you guys planning on a review for the Peugeot 3001. I love that car!
Ahhh 3008 I meant
+john eldho - we know you mean 3008 :) And yes we will!
Yesssssss! You guys are da best:)
CarAdvice.

this review was in the spot, great job.
Bring the 981 sound back
Add AWD to the Jag and suddenly the difference in performance is nil.
I owned 2 jaguars well before my midlife crisis and the last one was an electrical nightmare. It actually quit on me while I was on the German Autobahn doing 200 km/h.
I know that many car owners across brands, makes and models have similar experiences, but this one is mine. And I can surely say Jaguar isn't allowed on my driveway anymore :)
What's with the huuge gap between the bumper and the bonnet/quarter panels
On the F-type
James Read Jaguar keeping to its original E-Type inspired looks.
Nice vid! I love my f type!
Simple... Porsche is way better o paper while Jaguar is more about the joy of the ride. jaguar fans will not change to a porsche and vice versa... Personally, I´m more a specs guy and I absolutely love the new clean design on the 718, so Porsche wins for me
they're talking Australian with stats, I have no idea what those things mean.
Ah those 'Australian stats' would be the SI units, my good sir. Also known as International system of units.
I have a v6s and I am sure it has a 8 speed zf not a 7 speed and people will let you out a junction in the Jaguar they won't in the porsche.
Wats the best colour in 718 cayman . Red or white
Red
I am trading my f type v8 for cayman s. Jag is beautiful car but the reliability is shit. It has spent more time in the shop than on the road and the repair cost is ridiculous. Save yourself a hassle and get a Porsche. Will never buy another Jag again.
So the Porsche is a little better at the track....ok. When is the last time you raced on a track?
You nailed it. 99.9% of the time, most of us enjoy the car’s day to day personality and weekend drives along curvy roads. Not because of it’s race track behavior. I chose the Jag F-TYPE R because it wins 99.9% over Porsche.
I have the 718 Boxster S and my brother has the F-Type. Both are beautiful and great in different ways. To me, having had a 911 and an AM V8 Vantage, I'd never considered the Boxster as anything other than a cheaper Porsche. But the 718 has a character all of it's own and the performance is right up there with the 911s now. It is the most fun car I've ever had and fastest although doesn't have the prestige of the Aston. i actually think it's also the best looking car I've had - mine is crayon which is stunning. I like the F-type and was tempted but too similar to the Aston without being an Aston. I do miss the engine noise (from a V8, not the 911 6cyl which isnt anything great) but on the overall package, looks, performance, fun etc - the 718s is the best car I've had. I do tell my brother that his car looks good as i view it in the distance behind me :-)
I wish reviews of cars were matched better, mid engine against front engine is dumb, of course the porsche is going to handle better.
Then there's the fact the Jag was designed for the experience and theatre and not a track day warrior like all porsche's. Jag vs Mustang would of been far more appropriate.
Porsche only :)
Definitely pick the jaguar
I like this channel but hate how everything is in KW
140k??? the base price in Germany is around 67k euros for the Porsche
Why are you so shocked? Because you found out that the cars cost the same in Germany and Australia? The 140 K car comes with 30K worth of options. And 67K Euros are +100K Australian dollars, so it is only 5000 dollars more expensive, which is not terrible, given you have to ship it down there, do the local market customisations, paperwork bla-bla...
In Australia there is 13% -51% tax on cars . Porsche boxster s is taxed $55000 here when you add orc tax
Australia has 33% luxury car tax
1. The ZF is NOT a slow transmission
2. This is not an OLD mans jag
3. F-Type is not crazy heavy compared to maserati granturismo + aston martin
4. Boxster is a horrible comparison to an f-type as it punches between classes
Nothing says nutless wonder like a 4 cylinder Porsche.
The 718 not only out performs the jag it obliterates it. At the lights, standing quarter, track, jag wont be there for long. Sound is sorted with a proper exhaust to unleash that kick arse 4cyl donk those nutts at Porsche came up with. 2 differant cars really & built for differant reasons also. Well done Porsche, bout time a boxster got some legit performance to match its pedigree. 👏
The Jag V8 is priced the same and wickedly faster than a 911 Turbo RS.
what? 😂😂. A 911 Turbo is lightyears faster than any Jag. The Porsche does 1/4 mile around 10 sec and the Jag round 11.5. Thats actually more than a lightyears difference.
You can not ignore the horrible Subaru sound 718 makes , I hated it so much even it was great . Went with 981 GTS and that's a proper Porsche
My dad used to own boxster S. First 2 generations. The sound of the flat 6 was amazing. It was plenty fast enough. Need to rev it but that's the point. A 4 cylinder just doesn't have the soul. The Jag seems too far the other way. Too loud and too artificial with all those pops. Get the last gen boxster. Handles better than Jag with proper sound.
