But F-Type has a 4cyl now. "Avoid single mufflers". I kid I kid, I shall foster an atmosphere of exclusivity.
OOPS SPOONERISM. I meant to say inclusivity.

I visited a Porsche dealer recently. Took a friend out there to pick up his car.
One otherwise beautiful 911 had the most hideous decal kit from the factory I've ever seen. The price for the ugly stickers - $12k!
I was thinking what if JLR put an ugly sticker kit on an F-Type and tried to sell it for a $5k option cost. It would sit FOREVER.

In Portland I've only seen two other F-Types in over a year. There was only one little dealer here, but now the Land Rover dealer is expanding into a large Jag/LR facility.
Yes I believe it was a GT3rs. Giant letters spelling out Porsche going different directions. Off-white and Yellow decals over bright white - hideous.
Funny - I owned a '74 911 w/ letters on/under the doors and that bugged me (circa early 90s). But this was just awful.
Super expensive/fancy dealership in Beaverton - I guess someone has to pay for all that real estate.
I was at an Costco parked next to a very nice 911 and people were checking out my F-type and ignoring the 911. I love most 911s and it was beautiful no doubt, but people see one every hour.

I'm guessing it was the Endurance Racing Edition 911 on their website...

Oh yes - that is it! But I believe it was yellow/off white. That doesn't look as bad but still is horrible.
$12k! The salesman pointed out that it included the blacked out mirrors. I was like 'oh, that explains it then ....'
Those decals scream "I know you've seen thousands of these on the road, please look at me!'.
Like I said, I love all nice cars and to each their own. If that was $1200 and it was someone's thing - maybe. But $12k LOL - I mean damn.
A friend of mine bought a Dodge Hellcat and got that gigantic decal job of the logo on the side w/ the cat head. I chastised him about it. He said what I expected. He didn't want the car to be confused with the $24k basic Challenger.
Otherwise very nice car for what it is and tons of fun but made to look like trailer trash.
On my R maybe a giant decal that says 550 HP Model 2nd from the Top HAHAHA
