For fun and curiosity, I took a sports car that costs 2x as much. I accidentally typed in V6 S and used base F-Type specs and price, so ignore the “S”.

Performance metrics. I want to see those.

I hope to make that a reality one day. I really wanna drive an F-Type.

I’ve been looking at this a bunch too but for my mustang. F-Types are gorgeous, but it seems you sacrifice performance for comfort (which isn’t a problem, just a feature). What’s got me about your image is; is your Ecoboost faster than my GT? That’s insane!

You have more torque, barely less HP, and probably lighter due to engine setup... I mean other than the difference in RPMs where we make our power, that seems ridiculously close.

I don’t think it’s faster than your GT. As fast, maybe, but definitely not faster. Especially if it’s an S197 5.0. Considering I make my power and torque down low compared to your higher up, I think it’d be very close but I’d give it to you.

Also consider it took modifications to get to where I am now.

Also, is pure sex to look at and listen to.

I mean... a portion of that price is in the design. Pure and simple.
