2016 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe - But Coupe or Convertible?
Thank you to http://www.jaguarsanjose.com/ for allowing me some time behind the wheel of this beautiful 2016 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe. This 550hp beast is absolutely stunning in its looks, handling, and throaty sounds. The 5.0 liter Supercharger V8 puts out a sound that is intoxicating and leads to smiles by both driver and passenger. How it looks: Stunning. Sexy. Leaves you speechless. I really don't know what to say, just look at it. The lines are perfect. Its small size makes it easy to control on the road, park and the interior is equally as sexy as the exterior. How it drives: The F-Type is bipolar, in the best way possible. The 8 speed ZF transmission makes it smooth on the road in traffic for daily commuting and the quick shifts when in sport/dynamic mode with the exhaust open turn it into a controllable monster on the backroads. The R comes standard with all-wheel drive (AWD), unfortunately, rear wheel drive (RWD) was only available on the 2015 model of the "R" which I would love to experience. Can't imagine how easy it is to light up the tires and throw it around corners. 0-60 happens in less than 4 seconds easily and the harder you push your foot down, the harder your head will fly back towards the seat. The 503 ft-lbs of torque is so much fun! Daily practicality: This is where the question of "Coupe or Convertible?" really comes in. Both don't have much trunk space, but it's enough for weekend getaways in the Coupe and even less in the convertible. Just 11 cubic feet in this one, you can fit 2 carry-on bags and a jacket. Fuel efficiency will probably be around 17mph which isn't bad with this much power and the interior is great to be in. Especially since it has a heated steering wheel! Suspension is stiff but won't kill your back if you're only in it for 2/3 hours a day. If you have questions, comment, DM me on Instagram @ACarPhotographer or call/visit San Jose Jaguar.
