Good looking car though..
Correct when compared to a Lincoln or Cadillac. But.... the F Type is the spiritual descendant of the XKE. No comparison with anything from Ford or GM. Well, maybe in V8 horsepower but certainly not in terms of looks, style, or class. I could lose 40% overnight in another market correction, or lose 40% of the same money but drive the Jag for 5 years. I'm sorely tempted to do something that some people would deem foolish. But dammit, I'll have fun.
