I didn't at all care for the automatic or the manual shift feature it has. There were some other things that just didn't feel right for me but overall great car, that really looks fantastic. I think I'm just too much of a Lotus guy. I may examine a manual if I have not purchased something by then.

Good luck w/ whatever you decide. Honestly, I highly doubted that any "Lotus" guy (raw/lightweight/purist) would make the switch to a F-Type unless the F-Type is a secondary car and you already have a track car. Like I mentioned, you have to accept the F-Type for what it is, it's it's definitely not a raw/pure sports car. It's a blast to drive, looks sexy, sounds great. But it's not really a pure sports car ala Lotus, S2000, etc.
