I own a 2015 "R" and at the age of 75 this thing makes getting outta bed a joy. Every time I drive mine it puts a Sh*t eating grin on my face, just like in the video. I love the drop dead looks, the sound of the machine gun exhaust and drop the hammer and that smile just fills my face. From the time the dealer started the the Jag, it just "talked to me". I've have had 5 Corvettes and none of them could touch the Jag. I plan to keep this car until they take my keys away, out of my dead hand. Right on review.
I think its improved my sex life. My heart beats at the heartbeat of a jaguar. I can't stop driving in track mode. I spend around $300 on petrol a week here. Must be even better for you. Natural viagra no side effects.
Hi mate, I am looking to get one in Australia, how is yournexperience going with your Jag, have you had any major issues? Watching this video that corrosion under the car looks concerning. Where I live it's mainly sunny and dry and only wet over winter, no snow, might be better suited in a dryer climate vs say UK. I've heard injectors sometimes need to be replaced? I want to buy say a 2016 model with about 60,000km so I can afford it and also want the louder exhaust as well as the original headlight design, which gives it a timeless vintage James Bond sports car look....other than potential issues I've heard about the car, im obsessed with getting one in black, took one for a test drive the other day and its just a mosnter
Not sure about the efficacy of that slogan. If you can save $40k, have a faster, more practical vehicle that depreciates less, who really is the illiterate one??
@@cccc9911 It’s not about the efficacy as much as it’s just the funniest thing I’ve heard this morning. I think thats what business decisions should be based on.
I drove one of these last year, and it makes you want to drive like an absolute baboon. The engine note, exhaust, and acceleration of this little go kart on steroids is absolutely exhilarating. Definitely a car I want in my garage in the future
I sold my Aston Martin DB-9 to buy one, zero regrets, this is the most fun car I have ever driven, got it in British racing green with a few engine tweaks, the guys driving it here reflect my thoughts perfectly, going fast or cruising slow it’s a head turner. In neighborhoods I turn dynamic mode off it’s a bit to loud with all the barks
Finally, a car that will make me the top dog of the Panera Bread parking lot. As I order my $12 bite-size sandwich during my brunch outing, every soccer mom in the joint will think, "I wish my husband had that level of panache. He's the top guy right now."

I bought my 2015 R six months ago. I'd say to you, jump in the water is fine. 6 months later it's still a great time, everytime I drive it. Picked mine up for 42k with 29k miles. I believe since then the price has increased 5 to 7% in line with the used car market as a whole during the Covid debacle. But seriously, even with that slight price increase, I think it's a steal. The thing was 115K new. I get so many compliments it's amazing and I live in Los Angeles amongst McLarens and Ferraris. Anyway, like I've said, I've had it for 6 months and I still watch this video at least once a month. Last note, I turn off the traction control and slide like I'm on the midget car circuit. So much fun.
Dead right! I never would have guessed Jag would come up with a car that's a legitimate heir to the E-Type in style, without being a tacky knockoff. Then again, Ian Callum is a classy designer. He did an awesome job with updating Aston Martin, too.

The Jaguar F-Type R was the first car that I drove with modern engineering. The V8 rumble with that 8 speed Automatic (I thought it was a DCT), and the sound. It was an 8 cylinder orchestra and I wanted more. Knowing the price of these cars and how affordable they've become is making this choice a lot easier now. I will start looking at these from here on out. (:
New generation Jags are super reliable and comfortable enough for daily driving. Buying a well kept used one is actually a sensible alternative to wasting the next five years of your precious driving time in a Camry.
Ok, new SavageGeese review is in, everyone knows the rules by now: High quality footage & music soundtrack, only one shirt, no visor or cliche corner test, No Turbowski, and no final score at the end.
Nobody noticed the "Choose Loving Kindness" T-shirt that's for fundraising for an ultrasound scanner at a rural Sri Lanka maternity ward? Props to you savagegeese!
@@patthonsirilim5739 That's what I did with my most recent car. About 2 years old with 18k miles. Paid $23k instead of $36k new. But that works out to $0.72/mile. A far cry from the withering depreciation of that Jag.
Man those F types have always been so good looking. Have never been in one, but they look so freaking good. That car needs a V8 for sure. Just the best soundtrack ever..
As an Ex 2015 R owner: I fucking love this car, will definitely buy another one in a few years. Switch wheels and tires to SVR spec, and add PS4S (265F, 305R) and it will be a canyon carver and a great daily driver. Just won’t be your track car. Also the seats are awesome for less than 2 hours.. after that they start wearing you down. Try to get one with the fixed glass roof, its effective in making it airy. I’d pick one up for 45K and save another 10 for the wheel-tire & paint protection. Warming up the engine properly = reliability 👍🏼
@@bmx687 I had an appendix surgery in a 2 week insurance gap period that costed me about $35K. I changed it for a 1LE V6 Camaro (I bought the Jag 2nd hand with 9K miles for around 60K). Tbh, the V6 1LE was a sweetheart as well!
I confess that it took me some time to warm up to mark on the channel. But currently, I'm really enjoying his input, he isn't just an Wikipedia of cars, he actually understands the fundamentals and makes good points.
Very well done video, and I'm glad you guys mentioned that it's not intended for the track. Its weight -somewhere between 3600 and 3900lbs - rules out fast lap times. Virtually everyone agrees that on-track, it'll lose out to more serious performance cars such as BMW M's and Porsches, yet it's really apples and oranges to compare them. It's a beautiful GT car in the literal sense, made for cruising, car meets, or day trips. Ask people which of the three is the most beautiful and suddenly lap times don't matter.
Picked one up right before the refresh since I didn't like the front end design, it's a car that always puts a smile on my face. It's worth it, but I'd recommend people buy it used since like you said...the depreciation is really high on these.
I own a 2015 F-Type that I purchased at CarMax for less than $50,000. The car has less than 21,000 miles on it and it's a blast to drive. I couldn't be happier with the F-Type. And it's nice to drive a car every day that doesn't look like every other car in the world.
Good job reviewing the most outrageously fun car of all time. The 2015 R weighs 3607 lbs, less than a 2016 V6. The 15R is also ferociously faster than an AWD SVR due to its 25% higher WHP to weight ratio.
Such a great looking car and what a sound. I'd be worried about the running cost of this still but I think it's nicer the the Lexus (though the Lexus looks a bit more special) Thanks to the owner for letting the guys use this and have Jack gushing and giggling.
I'm 6' 4" tall I've always admired this car from a far...no chance of me being comfortable in sucks seems like a great buy! You should do a video on sports cars for tall people! I've always wanted a sports car and never owned one for this reason...love your vids keep up the great work!
Absolutely love these cars and I'm about to type something that's most likely going to be discounted.....but I believe one day these things will be a collector's dream car going up in price. Get them while you still can.
I just bought a 14' V6 S roadster for 27k, awaiting delivery from the dealer... I've had the exact same thoughts... eventually this car will appreciate and I'll get my money back if not more!
The video is entitled "A $45,000 V8 Gorilla". In 2022, all inventory within 250 miles of Rochester, NY is $79,000 to well over $100,000. At $45,000, a great vehicle. At $80K to $100K, forget it!
My friend has an F-Type V6S. It is a fantastic car. He tracks, autocrosses, and extreme street drives it. I have driven it several times and it is such a beast. The comment you made about "You wouldn't track this car" couldn't be further from the truth. While being a heavy GT car, they handle exceptionally well. His best friend owns a GT350 and they are always back and forth on their lap times.
I've had my Eye on a F-type roadster for a minute, but couldnt justify the price. I had a Range Rover Sport with roughly the same engine back in the day and it always was fun as hell, could only imagine it in a small car. Im going to have to take a serious look at them now, found a few around $38k with low mileage in the roadster.... i'll check back if i pick one up ;) update 1 month later: I just picked up a 2017 type R, black convertible, all thanks to this video. thank you guys!!
@@jabariphillips8855 nope. 54k for a 17 plus tax. everything’s through the roof w the inflation and mines worth more now than when i bought it. everything’s crazy now.
@@brockvanleer1010 that’s a great price still. You got in at the right time. I bought my CPO 19 f pace s in February right before this madness for 41k before taxes. Now I’m in the same boat with the value being higher but if I sell it, I’ll just end up paying even more for the next car 😭
@@FFE-js2zp oh yeah you're not wrong. I have an Audi s5 and they told me $1500 for the brakes which is still laughable for me. I couldn't imagine someone telling me $3400!!! I'm not tracking my car lol
You touched on the talking point of it being a "Special Car" and this is something their engineers say and strive for the cars to be. As always you've done a great job on the review! Liked and Subscribed.
It's simple why we, Jack and the rest of us, love the F-Type. It's RWD, amazing sounding V8, and one of the most beautiful designs of all time. Crazy it's a 2 tonner though.
I plan to get one. That body style is so perfect and classic. I had no idea who designed it. No wonder it looks so good. Jag needed this really bad and so do we. I'm glad its not too short or small like the Z or BRZ.
Im sold!!! Was going back n forth between this or waiting on the Nissan Z next year but with this price and the luxury + gangsta ride aesthetic...yeah its the Jag all the way. Used 2016 for under 40k of course lol
Great review. I would tempted to find one of these if I didn't already buy a brand new 2020 Bullitt. I think it is just as much fun, plus it's brand new with a full warranty. It has a lot of the same qualities you are talking about. I drive a 2018 F150 as my daily driver for my business. Bullitt is my toy for after work hours. Love it!
Wow. Great work. Just got a subscriber. Never seen used car reviews like this undercarriage review was brilliant. One of my favorite cars and after this review will be searching. Thank you
Hey Mark, thanks for bringing Jack to your channel. This review made me appreciate him even more. Glad he took over "Turbowski" who was a complete bore.
It really is a great car. A buddy of mine rented one on Turo, and let me have a go. It's not a car I would have ever picked, but I was shocked how good it was. The engine note is right up there with my E92 M3. The steering feel and feedback is pretty darn close too. It went from a car I dismissed, to a car I would buy.
In 2016 I bought a new F Type S Convertible in Glacier White and have been loving it ever since. Since I first saw it at a Jaguar event in 2013, it has been my dream car and never really thought I could afford it. Now I own my dream car and will never let it go. I also purchased a 2018 Kia Stinger GT2 AWD with all the bells and whistles as my daily driver (despite geese's review). So you have great taste. I'm now waiting to pull the trigger on a Lexus LC 500 since I've watched the geese wax poetic about the LC. That video was the first time that I watched SG and have been in love ever since. Jack and Mark are the best!
@@terencetiu5099 Funny, I have been checking out the LC500 as well. Great looking vehicle. Just waiting for the price of a used one to go abit down first :) Our tastes certainly do align.
Love this video. Love this car. Easily an all time great. That engine sound is breath taking. Shame they ruined it on the refresh. At $45K-$50k ish this car makes so much sense
i like savage geese because they do realistic videos on cars. rather than trying to hype up the latest and greatest, they're really practical about what matters to drivers rather than try to get flashy views.
I’ve been saying it for a decade and short of that for the F-type. My buddy is an internist doc owns his own practice in Florida (Jag, Maserati, merc capital) and he owns a 2015 Ftype R rear wheel drive. He always complained on how scary it was to drive with a rear end that’ll beat you to the finish line and he was fond of my Porsche 911 1999 so we swapped for supposed to be a week but ended up being two days, but I was ecstatic. The feeling when you slide in and start it up is in fact exciting. It felt right. The exhaust is designed to mimic the snarl of a real Jaguar and I knew it when I cranked it up. From the jump pulling outta the parking lot the car is untamed and the rear end wants to go it’s own way. Lighten up the throttle and it snaps back but breaks loose instantly again. Dangerous to most drivers I’d assume but I whipped it into control with not too many issues. Driving from Hyde park to carrollwood I passed Raymond James with the TB Buccaneers playing. I had to light it up for the tail gators and a sick Lambo was skirting by so he did the same. Pure enjoyment. Ok so the rear end underneath you take the cross bars off and take them to a metal shop and dip them in nickel or a hard anodized solution to stop any rust. His Ftype had carbon fiber replacement bits where the cheap plastic was. Tires were pzero’s and struggled to bite when pushed but once warmed up they semi tamed the beast. I gotta say it’s a handful to drive and it’s a killer to most that attempt it. Talking the 2015 model. Stupid fun car and I loved it. Would I trade my much older 911 for it? Nope.
@Ian TB coyote derived V8, ZF transmission, I think the F-Type is more reliable than most people think, short of the rust from Tata cheaping out on the steel
It isn't as bad as all that. The drivetrain is not especially exotic, and Jag's traditional electrical problems were largely banished in the Ford years. I'd worry more about the crappy interior bits and pieces breaking than anything major happening.
Amazing car, I remember getting the awesome opportunity to ride in a 2016 F-Type R coupe during the 2016 Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. They had two of these as pace cars and the race manager was amazing and let me ride with the driver for a hot lap leading the 2-liter+ class (911/BMW 2002 etc) to the green flag. Driver turned off traction control and we got to do similar acceleration to this around Pittsburgh’s Schenley park 😂
Loved this car since it came out ... maybe it's because I love the Aston Martin Vantage so much. The F-Type has lines that will always be in-style and age extremely well.
I went to look at a wide body Hellcat.... Sat in it and wasn't sold... The I went to sit in a used 2017 SVR Jaguar the same price.... There is no Hellcat in my future.
@miyahtallulah Not sure how this is true? Who loves an unreliable car. As for the depreciation, how rich should you be not to care about your Jag being worth nothing after 10 years?
The 4cyl is awesome the front end is so light and the camber are set so it is one of the best handling cars on the planet 0-60 in 5 seconds and 30 mpg forget about it lol
@felix hunger yes. A lot of used cars have a couple of thousand miles. Some were tracked and driven hard, but a majority were weekend cars. Plus, extended warranties are a good thing.
If Hellcat drivers could read, they would be really mad at you.

Yeah that is a pathetic update
New EU regulations that’s why every manufacturer makes headlights narrower
@@kokipopi2985 This can't be real. Do you have any source?
@@AnonAlmostDelivers Crucially for cyclists, cars and vans will also be required to include enlarged head impact protection zones capable of mitigating injuries in the event of a collision.
This somehow translate to slimmer headlights as well as different windshields and bonnets. I might be wrong though.
Finally someone that uses eyes to see. The new front is hideous...
The music in this review is so spot on, I felt a tickle in my brain.
15:08 is why we buy these cars over Toyota corollas and Tesla’s. That feeling/sound is irreplaceable.
Who cross shops a Jaguar with a Corolla though? 😂
@@jacksongarrison3260 Corollas can impress, too. There was that E12 with the racing-cams engine from the Celica, and well, I got an E11 with a Celica engine, too:

Why are you comparing a daily to a toy
Im kicking myself in the ass not looking at the market 2 years ago for these before buying my audi
One of the very best sounding Full production Factory exhaust systems ever
The Jaguar F-Type R was the first car that I drove with modern engineering. The V8 rumble with that 8 speed Automatic (I thought it was a DCT), and the sound. It was an 8 cylinder orchestra and I wanted more. Knowing the price of these cars and how affordable they've become is making this choice a lot easier now. I will start looking at these from here on out. (:
It sounds like this a car you buy with your heart and not your mind.
That's most Jaguars, honestly
All nice cars pretty much, if you don’t buy car with your heart you’re probably not a enthusiast.
You mean just like buying any European cars out there
Mike McGlock not really
New generation Jags are super reliable and comfortable enough for daily driving. Buying a well kept used one is actually a sensible alternative to wasting the next five years of your precious driving time in a Camry.
Jag has produced a beautiful “refreshed” Aston...
Not even the drop dead gorgeous looks of the Jaguar can distract me from Jack's magnetic charisma and even better looks.. 🥰
Jack's gonna be feeling good this weekend
Simp... But justified 😍

Ok, new SavageGeese review is in, everyone knows the rules by now: High quality footage & music soundtrack, only one shirt, no visor or cliche corner test, No Turbowski, and no final score at the end.
The world would keep on spinning without the final score.
But...I miss Turbowski.
Nobody noticed the "Choose Loving Kindness" T-shirt that's for fundraising for an ultrasound scanner at a rural Sri Lanka maternity ward?
Props to you savagegeese!
I’ve watched this so many times thinking about getting one and I think the time has come, thank you
You won’t regret it, however clean examples are getting tougher to find…especially early model RWD.
That's some serious depreciation. Works out $7.67 per mile driven.
Beautiful bird, the Norwegian Blue-lovely plumage.
@Ian TB buy low milage 2-3 years old car you get pretty much half the price with pretty much a decently new car
@john m My Acura took ten years to depreciate that big a percentage and it had 60k miles on it.
@@patthonsirilim5739 That's what I did with my most recent car. About 2 years old with 18k miles. Paid $23k instead of $36k new. But that works out to $0.72/mile. A far cry from the withering depreciation of that Jag.
@mhffc no comparison. The quality/reliability on an Acura is magnitudes higher over the rusted jag 😂
Man those F types have always been so good looking. Have never been in one, but they look so freaking good. That car needs a V8 for sure. Just the best soundtrack ever..
As an Ex 2015 R owner:
I fucking love this car, will definitely buy another one in a few years. Switch wheels and tires to SVR spec, and add PS4S (265F, 305R) and it will be a canyon carver and a great daily driver. Just won’t be your track car. Also the seats are awesome for less than 2 hours.. after that they start wearing you down. Try to get one with the fixed glass roof, its effective in making it airy. I’d pick one up for 45K and save another 10 for the wheel-tire & paint protection.
Warming up the engine properly = reliability 👍🏼
Why did u sell it?
@@bmx687 I had an appendix surgery in a 2 week insurance gap period that costed me about $35K. I changed it for a 1LE V6 Camaro (I bought the Jag 2nd hand with 9K miles for around 60K).
Tbh, the V6 1LE was a sweetheart as well!
I confess that it took me some time to warm up to mark on the channel. But currently, I'm really enjoying his input, he isn't just an Wikipedia of cars, he actually understands the fundamentals and makes good points.
Very well done video, and I'm glad you guys mentioned that it's not intended for the track. Its weight -somewhere between 3600 and 3900lbs - rules out fast lap times. Virtually everyone agrees that on-track, it'll lose out to more serious performance cars such as BMW M's and Porsches, yet it's really apples and oranges to compare them. It's a beautiful GT car in the literal sense, made for cruising, car meets, or day trips. Ask people which of the three is the most beautiful and suddenly lap times don't matter.
You’re a skunk! 🦨
Lap times always matter.
I’m finally gonna buy one of these… so damn excited. Almost got a Supra but decided to go F Type R (with extended warranty of course)
Picked one up right before the refresh since I didn't like the front end design, it's a car that always puts a smile on my face. It's worth it, but I'd recommend people buy it used since like you said...the depreciation is really high on these.
I own one of these babies and this is the most spot on discussion of this car on TH-cam. Bought mine on eBay for a great price!
"This is like a Hellcat that can read" was the line of the video.
I own a 2015 F-Type that I purchased at CarMax for less than $50,000. The car has less than 21,000 miles on it and it's a blast to drive. I couldn't be happier with the F-Type. And it's nice to drive a car every day that doesn't look like every other car in the world.
Good job reviewing the most outrageously fun car of all time. The 2015 R weighs 3607 lbs, less than a 2016 V6. The 15R is also ferociously faster than an AWD SVR due to its 25% higher WHP to weight ratio.
Oh my, I chocked on my coffee at the lap dancing professor comment! 😂👍🏼
i would do anything for a woman like that lol
Such a great looking car and what a sound. I'd be worried about the running cost of this still but I think it's nicer the the Lexus (though the Lexus looks a bit more special)
Thanks to the owner for letting the guys use this and have Jack gushing and giggling.
I'm 6' 4" tall I've always admired this car from a far...no chance of me being comfortable in sucks seems like a great buy! You should do a video on sports cars for tall people! I've always wanted a sports car and never owned one for this reason...love your vids keep up the great work!
One of the best F type videos out there. I love that you covered all of the aspects: interior, mechanics, driving etc.
Disappointing refresh!?! Exactly what it needed. Well executed.
Absolutely love these cars and I'm about to type something that's most likely going to be discounted.....but I believe one day these things will be a collector's dream car going up in price. Get them while you still can.
There is no doubt.
I just bought a 14' V6 S roadster for 27k, awaiting delivery from the dealer... I've had the exact same thoughts... eventually this car will appreciate and I'll get my money back if not more!
@ 13:47, “I had no ideaaaaaaaruuuuhhhhhggg”. LOL. I LOVED IT!
The video is entitled "A $45,000 V8 Gorilla". In 2022, all inventory within 250 miles of Rochester, NY is $79,000 to well over $100,000. At $45,000, a great vehicle. At $80K to $100K, forget it!
Yeah but those price on temporary. Give it a year or 2
I autocrossed a F type V8 AWD and it was amazing.
Jack loves this car so much he steamed it up inside...
My friend has an F-Type V6S. It is a fantastic car. He tracks, autocrosses, and extreme street drives it. I have driven it several times and it is such a beast. The comment you made about "You wouldn't track this car" couldn't be further from the truth. While being a heavy GT car, they handle exceptionally well. His best friend owns a GT350 and they are always back and forth on their lap times.
your friend's best friend can't drive.
One of my top 3 "wants." Would have to drive this and the v6 manual to decide. Thanks savagegeese!
I've had my Eye on a F-type roadster for a minute, but couldnt justify the price. I had a Range Rover Sport with roughly the same engine back in the day and it always was fun as hell, could only imagine it in a small car. Im going to have to take a serious look at them now, found a few around $38k with low mileage in the roadster.... i'll check back if i pick one up ;)
update 1 month later: I just picked up a 2017 type R, black convertible, all thanks to this video. thank you guys!!
We’re you able to get yours for under 50k?
@@jabariphillips8855 nope. 54k for a 17 plus tax. everything’s through the roof w the inflation and mines worth more now than when i bought it. everything’s crazy now.
@@brockvanleer1010 that’s a great price still. You got in at the right time. I bought my CPO 19 f pace s in February right before this madness for 41k before taxes. Now I’m in the same boat with the value being higher but if I sell it, I’ll just end up paying even more for the next car 😭
“Attainable price.” ...grabs wrench to glumly replace brake pads on my $2000 V8 Lexus
A comment I can see/ feel.
Standard F-Type brakes and rotors are $3400 at the Jag dealer, and thats without so much as cleaning the calipers.
@@FFE-js2zp just buy your own and have them put on by someone else
@@Anonymous-qj3ry
I do my own brakes as a rule, but one would expect the dealer to at least do a decent job for 10x the price.
@@FFE-js2zp oh yeah you're not wrong. I have an Audi s5 and they told me $1500 for the brakes which is still laughable for me. I couldn't imagine someone telling me $3400!!! I'm not tracking my car lol
I have rebuilt cars and learned trouble the hard way...at the side of the road.... This is a real review - thanks!
You touched on the talking point of it being a "Special Car" and this is something their engineers say and strive for the cars to be. As always you've done a great job on the review! Liked and Subscribed.
I have a '14 V8S Convertible. To this day, I still love driving and looking at it.
The older ones look sooooooo much better than the refresh.
One of the best car channels on TH-cam 👑
It's simple why we, Jack and the rest of us, love the F-Type. It's RWD, amazing sounding V8, and one of the most beautiful designs of all time. Crazy it's a 2 tonner though.
The production quality on this channel is over the top. It truly rivals that of feature films.
I plan to get one. That body style is so perfect and classic. I had no idea who designed it. No wonder it looks so good. Jag needed this really bad and so do we.
I'm glad its not too short or small like the Z or BRZ.
The designer was both named and shown: Ian Callum.
I really appreciate this video. I had no idea how fun these cars were, I was smiling right with you guys.
There was a software update in the older models that would eliminate some exhaust burbles so some owners didn’t update their infotainment as a result.
The future is now old man... 😭
Im sold!!! Was going back n forth between this or waiting on the Nissan Z next year but with this price and the luxury + gangsta ride aesthetic...yeah its the Jag all the way.
Used 2016 for under 40k of course lol
Great review. I would tempted to find one of these if I didn't already buy a brand new 2020 Bullitt. I think it is just as much fun, plus it's brand new with a full warranty. It has a lot of the same qualities you are talking about. I drive a 2018 F150 as my daily driver for my business. Bullitt is my toy for after work hours. Love it!
Huge soft spot for mustangs. Congratulations on the bullitt.
What they glossed over is the look - sound system, infotainment, engine, suspension, steering aside, the look is timeless.
Wow. Great work. Just got a subscriber. Never seen used car reviews like this undercarriage review was brilliant. One of my favorite cars and after this review will be searching. Thank you
Can we just appreciate this amazing editing , amazing camera Quality and great sound effect
Hey Mark, thanks for bringing Jack to your channel. This review made me appreciate him even more. Glad he took over "Turbowski" who was a complete bore.
It really is a great car. A buddy of mine rented one on Turo, and let me have a go. It's not a car I would have ever picked, but I was shocked how good it was. The engine note is right up there with my E92 M3. The steering feel and feedback is pretty darn close too. It went from a car I dismissed, to a car I would buy.
I remember wanting the F-Type for a couple of years. Now I drive a Stinger GTII. Great video, car has aged well.
In 2016 I bought a new F Type S Convertible in Glacier White and have been loving it ever since. Since I first saw it at a Jaguar event in 2013, it has been my dream car and never really thought I could afford it. Now I own my dream car and will never let it go. I also purchased a 2018 Kia Stinger GT2 AWD with all the bells and whistles as my daily driver (despite geese's review). So you have great taste. I'm now waiting to pull the trigger on a Lexus LC 500 since I've watched the geese wax poetic about the LC. That video was the first time that I watched SG and have been in love ever since. Jack and Mark are the best!
@@terencetiu5099 Funny, I have been checking out the LC500 as well. Great looking vehicle. Just waiting for the price of a used one to go abit down first :) Our tastes certainly do align.
I’ve been looking for a mid-life crisis-mobile to shop and I always wanted to like this jag ...someone owes you commission 👍🏾
The Jaguar F-Type is one of my favorite cars ever!
Love this video. Love this car. Easily an all time great. That engine sound is breath taking. Shame they ruined it on the refresh. At $45K-$50k ish this car makes so much sense
Your best vid by far (& you make great, fun & informative content)
Found myself grinning all the way through it. Kudos gents!
Been waiting Eons for this review. Big up savagegeese.
i like savage geese because they do realistic videos on cars. rather than trying to hype up the latest and greatest, they're really practical about what matters to drivers rather than try to get flashy views.
They cannot allow rust anymore
It’s dangerous and terrible this has happened
No car should rust like this in the model era
Yeah, almost makes you feel you have to immediately go to the shop and replace the subframe with something that won't rust so fast.
I’ve been saying it for a decade and short of that for the F-type.
My buddy is an internist doc owns his own practice in Florida (Jag, Maserati, merc capital) and he owns a 2015 Ftype R rear wheel drive. He always complained on how scary it was to drive with a rear end that’ll beat you to the finish line and he was fond of my Porsche 911 1999 so we swapped for supposed to be a week but ended up being two days, but I was ecstatic.
The feeling when you slide in and start it up is in fact exciting. It felt right. The exhaust is designed to mimic the snarl of a real Jaguar and I knew it when I cranked it up.
From the jump pulling outta the parking lot the car is untamed and the rear end wants to go it’s own way.
Lighten up the throttle and it snaps back but breaks loose instantly again.
Dangerous to most drivers I’d assume but I whipped it into control with not too many issues.
Driving from Hyde park to carrollwood I passed Raymond James with the TB Buccaneers playing. I had to light it up for the tail gators and a sick Lambo was skirting by so he did the same.
Pure enjoyment.
Ok so the rear end underneath you take the cross bars off and take them to a metal shop and dip them in nickel or a hard anodized solution to stop any rust.
His Ftype had carbon fiber replacement bits where the cheap plastic was.
Tires were pzero’s and struggled to bite when pushed but once warmed up they semi tamed the beast.
I gotta say it’s a handful to drive and it’s a killer to most that attempt it.
Talking the 2015 model.
Stupid fun car and I loved it.
Would I trade my much older 911 for it?
Nope.
The type of car that’s epic when it’s not broken.
@Ian TB coyote derived V8, ZF transmission, I think the F-Type is more reliable than most people think, short of the rust from Tata cheaping out on the steel
It isn't as bad as all that. The drivetrain is not especially exotic, and Jag's traditional electrical problems were largely banished in the Ford years. I'd worry more about the crappy interior bits and pieces breaking than anything major happening.
Amazing car, I remember getting the awesome opportunity to ride in a 2016 F-Type R coupe during the 2016 Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. They had two of these as pace cars and the race manager was amazing and let me ride with the driver for a hot lap leading the 2-liter+ class (911/BMW 2002 etc) to the green flag. Driver turned off traction control and we got to do similar acceleration to this around Pittsburgh’s Schenley park 😂
F-Type is nice, but the XK is a better GT car with better build quality. I'm speaking as a Jaguar owner of 20 years.
What a fantastic, comprehensive and complete review, well done bro👍👍👍
This beaut was my poster car for the longest time, no Lambos. This is affordable bliss!! 😇
You can get a pristine low mileage 18 from the dealer for 90k CAD, new they were like 120
Loved this car since it came out ... maybe it's because I love the Aston Martin Vantage so much. The F-Type has lines that will always be in-style and age extremely well.
I went to look at a wide body Hellcat.... Sat in it and wasn't sold... The I went to sit in a used 2017 SVR Jaguar the same price.... There is no Hellcat in my future.
I will never drive this car but, I live vicariously with your review. I was smiling the whole video through.
This car is reliable and will keep its value over time - said no one ever!
@miyahtallulah Not sure how this is true? Who loves an unreliable car. As for the depreciation, how rich should you be not to care about your Jag being worth nothing after 10 years?
@@onilovni1234Like he said, this car is not for you ;-0 These cars will be going up in value in the years to come.
Jack is one of the best presenters out there period. I still remember his Tacoma review
Savage, Jack, please make a test of 2007-2014 Jag XK (x150).
The 4cyl is awesome the front end is so light and the camber are set so it is one of the best handling cars on the planet 0-60 in 5 seconds and 30 mpg forget about it lol
Lightly used GT350 for the same money, ask me how I know haha
Damn I didn't realise they depreciated that much. I know roush stage 2 and 3 are really cheap used. It's tempting
It's between the f type, 14 gt 500 and gt 350 for me
@felix hunger yes. A lot of used cars have a couple of thousand miles. Some were tracked and driven hard, but a majority were weekend cars. Plus, extended warranties are a good thing.
I’m not really a car guy, much less a follower of car youtubers, but this video was beautifully done!
