Default new review of coupe v6 s

most of the reviews focus on the R, but this one is about the V6 S.

Jaguar F-type Coupe V6 S (2014) review | Road Testing Reviews | Car Magazine Online

Time for a confession. I drove the F-type Coupe R the week before the V6 S arrived. And for all the bravura, the sheer punch and outright speed of the V8, I preferred the V6 S. As is so often the case, the R delivered an excess of the good things, leaving little sister to deliver a purer, more affordable driving experience.

The F-type Coupe V6 S is a fabulous car that deserves to do well. The F family remains a rare sight on our roads, but we hope more Porsche buyers give it a go. If you can stomach the high price, you’ll buy an exceptionally good-looking coupe inside and out, one with fine driving manners and an epic powertrain that’s every bit as scintillating as a flat six. They’ve different characters, the F-type and the Porsches, but we commend those who want to try the flair of the Jag after such a a longstanding repeat prescription of Germanic precision.
