Nope. I live in LA and drive mostly near the Sunset Blvd. area, so nobody gives a **** about this car when there are Aventadors, Ferraris, a million Porsche 911s and even a few Veyrons rolling around.

Yes.

Small children of all ages tend to stare too.

Also, there's the phenomenon that is driving steadily on the motorway and having faster cars slow down to take in the view.

I've recently had people to ask me to rev it (mailman, teenagers at stoplights...). Every other day the car gets a compliment. One addled kid walking by my car wash said "You won man. The game of life, you won!" Kind of heart breaking.

But, no arguing with results. The length of "stare-time" as drivers approach me or pass from the side, while somewhat surprising, speaks volumes about the strength of the F-Type's silhouette...from any angle.

Do you have any pics Delatgroup? Would love to see some. Also, what wheels did you go with?
Thanks,
