...the wife sees the Jag F-type coupe and says, "You need to win the lottery so we can get one of those." :D

LOL, like you wouldn't pack everybody up and move to the land of the Avants if you snagged a winning powerball ticket.

Am I the only one who doesn't find it all that attractive? Especially compared to this:

I would stay in the US but get a house in Europe to go with my RS6

Could I be your 'porter? Gonna need a guy to keep the Avants in good shape when you're away (because we both know you'll have a fleet rivaling all the taxis in NY). A house sitter would be nice too, so chavs don't break in and ruin your Avant fleet, which will of course become world-famous for being the largest concentration of Avants ever.

Yup...you are the only one. :)

I guess it depends on whether or not you were a Jag fan before the F-type. Other than the classics, I never really cared for them until now.

I unintentionally just posted something about me catching up top gear before seeing this article.

Did you send her down to the 7-11 to get tickets?

One thing I noticed about this car when I actually got to mess with one at the auto show is that the door handles are sort of weird. Depending on what side you're on is what hand you have to use to open it, and then after you open it, its somewhat difficult to slide your hand out from under the handle in time for it to not pinch your fingers, and not fast enough that it snaps back against the car, which makes a really loud noise. Not a huge issue obviously but I wish they made it a little easier.
