Huge Price Increases for 2016
#3
The price increases don't seem to be that much. The R Coupe price goes up $6,106 USD (the link lists $7,840 AUD), and includes AWD, the pano roof ($1,200 in 2015) and the Vision pack ($2,100 in 2015). So, essentially you are getting the AWD on a 2016 for $2,800. Seems entirely reasonable to me. I don't see any HUGE price increases in that...

That simply won't fly here because it would make the car completely uncompetitive. In other words, U.S. versions are signficantly discounted compared to the same car almost anywhere else in the world.
I would predict about a $5K increase over '15 US pricing.

And the RWD accelerates 0.1. slower to 100kmh, which I found surprising.

Jaguarusa configurator pages have changed
Since yesterday the F-Type configurator has been tweaked. They are no longer offering the 2015 for configuration, only the 2016 MY. Still no pricing. All options still showing the same as previously for the 2016:
The All New 2016 Jaguar F-TYPE Convertible & Coupe | Jaguar USA
The All New 2016 Jaguar F-TYPE Convertible & Coupe | Jaguar USA

~ the thing i noticed... if you select the v6s awd... you automatically obtain the following:
design pack adds visual impact with a body colored front bumper splitter and aero splitters, side sill extensions and rear venture.
not a big fan of the appearance of the extensions and rear valance on the f type.

+1. In my personal opinion, the design pack adds a sense of busyness to the body shape that detracts from the clean, sleek and beautiful lines of the original design.

Good point. I didn't think of that.

I was comparing pricing on two identically spec'd R's and the only difference was RWD vs AWD, so I was comparing apples for apples, the exchange rate didn't play a factor in the price difference.

According to Autoweek - looks like the prices for the 2016 (US) have been announced -
Here's some of the article:
Packaging the all-wheel-drive hardware means the hood’s power dome is now a little more pronounced, but it’s crisply executed and adds a more purposeful look. But beware unwanted inflations elsewhere, including the price –- up $6,000 to $87,800 on the V6 S, while the R AWD bumps beyond $100K to $106,600 –- and weight rises a relatively small 176 pounds, but still pushes the all-aluminum R to 3,814 pounds.

Either way, glad I got the MY15 R.

The article doesn't mention if that includes any other packages. I believe the panoramic roof is now standard so that is $1200 included. The vision pack is the only other package left. If it is included then that's a $4200 increase but if it isn't then AWD adds $6400.
Either way, glad I got the MY15 R.

On top of that the power hatch is standard as well as the extra painted bits, in-control apps and 770 watt sound system (which I think was standard on the R?). So some increases from those too im sure.
