Question Any of you guys got this book...?

I think it's rather cool and unique,when you plug it into a USB port,it pulls up all kinds of hi-def pics and some great video's on what the thought process was behind the car by the designers/engineers:

2014 Jaguar F Type F Type Coupe Introduction Press Kit Hardcover Book w USB Port | eBay

It was given to the press at the LA Coupe introduction and wasn't for public consumption...

I know the book would be more collectable, but if you want to check out the content, the company that created the press-kit has the pdf version of the book and all the videos posted on their website.

Well that was the last one @ $24.99 (+$9.95 shipping),I bought it and it was damaged in shipping due to ****-poor packaging so I sent it back and bought this one today that was advertised @ $45 w/free shipping but she was taking offers and accepted my $40 offer so it's on it's way.

She has 5 more I think and won't take a penny less than $40 (trust me I tried,lol!)but with free shipping,she's $5 less than another one I saw and a full $25 less than the only other seller I could find:

Happy bidding!

Jaguar should give all of us one as a thank you gift.

Last month I got in touch with a product person at Jaguar to suggest they produce an updated coffee table book. The existing one is really dated, I think the XJ and XF didn't even make the cut.

Jaguar's brand renaissance has been fuelled by the emotive response consumers have had to the brand and its history of beautiful cars, so I think they may be working on a new book.

They also said they're working on a broader line of accessories and apparel.

I bought one for 40. Not worth it especially since the corner was damaged so not really a collectors item.
