Often verbal, or even just slack jaw stuff.. ie: "I love the look of your car... that colour is so sexy... is it a Jaguar, its beautiful etc. etc..

Some hipsters pretend to ignore the car, but it's funny when I catch them looking in the side view mirror after I drive past
Out of consideration for the neighborhood, i leave the active exhaust off in the city but the sound is still catchy enough that I see folks looking around wondering where it's coming from!

I'm in SF....people are used to seeing exotics here and there in the city, so I don't get compliments per se, but people do rubberneck when I drive around.

More than GT3
I just got my coupe 3 weeks ago. It does get a lot more looks and comments than the Porsche GT3 I used to own. But the kind of ugly stares you might get driving a MacLaren or Lamborghini
gotwish Actually yes--thumbs up from an Audi RS5 today.
billykmd yes. Its a good looking car.
What color did each of you choose for you F-Type?

I have a 2012 997 Turbo S. One of the badest of the bad. I've had one compliment while driving it. A guy next to me at a stop light looks over and says, "nice car". That's in the last year and a half.
In the last month that I have had the F type, (Convertible), I have had numerous other drivers give me thumbs up or roll down their window and shout "cool car" or in two cases chase me down just to get along side and say the car was beautiful and want to know what it was.
So no doubt, Jaguar got it right with the F Type. No question there are things I don't like about it but the exterior is not one of them.
