Are these freeze frames from a Dire Straits video?

Patent drawings. Please let the rear hatch open to the side like the E-Type.

The convertible looked outstanding in person. You really have to see it in motion to get an idea for the extreme proportions out back.

I attended a Jag driving event recently and managed to snap some photos of the F-Type and an XKR-S. Check out the similarities between the hood, roof, grille tops and panel gaps. Closer than I realized.

Beautiful car. Automobile magazine is comparing it with the R8 and 911 Carrera S so that's a definite accomplishment for a car that's not even for sale yet.

Love the new F-Type (i'm just not a fan of the price).

Would love to see how much they will ask for the F-Type S in this coupe varietal!

Verts are in the dealers now.
Gorgeous car. Side view gives me a Z8 vibe .

The lunar gray with an off white interior was nice...
then..104K.
Uhh.....

No test drive, but here was my problem(s)

Trunk? psffft. Could barely get a laptop and a pair of gym shoes in it.
Price.
Troubles on the way?
And of course that Jaguar resale.

I want to want but just can't.

DAMN it's good looking though.
Thought about it in my sleep.
