Carrot01 Posted 13June, 2022 Report Share Posted 13June, 2022 Wifey wants a F-Type coupe - just the 3.0 V6 supercharged version. Anyone have any direct experience with these? Just put a deposit on a 2016 with 73,000 kms Havent driven it yet but seen it on friday Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boosh Posted 13June, 2022 Report Share Posted 13June, 2022 I like them. Drive well, sound nice, look nice. It's a winner. I prefer a 911 but would take the f-type over a cayman/boxster. Carrot01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrot01 Posted 13June, 2022 Author Report Share Posted 13June, 2022 well, it started out she wanting a 911, but not much choice over here in WA - spend $70k on a 20 year old 996 or another 18 on a 2016 F-Type Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWY Posted 14June, 2022 Report Share Posted 14June, 2022 Great car. Sounds mega. Digital displays are more archaic than Porsche of equal age. Build quality not as good- especially the bonnet which flexes too easily and makes it difficult to close. Zero boot space. But a very nice drive and the auto gearbox is quick enough to keep up on spirited drives. Carrot01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrot01 Posted 14June, 2022 Author Report Share Posted 14June, 2022 yeah only $88k so seems like good value - without the spacesaver wheel the boot is actually pretty good, underfloor area as well. Much better than he current SLK/SLC Picking it up now HWY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWY Posted 14June, 2022 Report Share Posted 14June, 2022 Enjoy it- the supercharger v6 is definitely the pick of the engines in my opinion. And it has a classic Ian Callum shape that has aged really well. Carrot01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
