Is anybody planning on going to the performance driving academy at the end of June in Monticello?

 

I'm going

 

Not that one but just used my code for the Feb 18th one in Las Vegas.

 

Waiting for Vegas!

 

Did anyone notice that a free Level 1 course is no longer included with the purchase of an R vehicle starting April 4, 2015? Instead you only get a discounted rate of $495.

 

I'm looking at Saturday so the wife can go shopping at the outlets in Woodbury.

 

Does anyone know if the performance driving course is offered to Canadians who purchase an R? My dealer never mentioned it so I assume not.

 

I would love to go if someone is not going and provides me with pin for discount

 

The pin I was given does say to be used within 12 months of vehicle purchase but they accepted the Feb 2016 Vegas day anyway for me, which would be 15 months after I had purchased. Sure wish they offered more than those 3 tracks/cities.

 

Yeah I chose Saturday myself. It's a 4 hour session. They are also having a reception the night prior in a hotel close by where you get to meet some of the race car drivers. I think that's pretty lame because you can't bring a guest to the track.

 

How long after the purchase before Jaguar contacts you for this? Or in general, how long after the purchase before Jag sent you a welcome email of some sort? All I got in the 5 weeks since my purchase was a survey email.

 

I got mine about a month after delivery. If you haven't received it yet you can call the Jaguar Driving Academy Concierge at 888-535-8588.

 

Mine was right at a month as well

 

Yep, my dealer just informed me of this yesterday when we were discussing me taking delivery of my 2016...

 

I'm doing the morning session. You?

 

Yup. I chose the morning session. I think it's from 8-12. I guess I'll see ya there.

 

From the website seems like it should be free?

Level 1
The Jaguar Performance Driving Academy Level 1 Course is complimentary to U.S. residents within twelve (12) months of purchase of one of the following new 2014 or 2015 Jaguar models: XFR, XFR-S, XKR (Coupe or Convertible), XKR-S (Coupe or Convertible), XJR and the F-TYPE R Coupe. The Level 1 Course is also complimentary to any customer who placed an order with a deposit for a 2016 F-TYPE R Coupe or Convertible on or before April 3, 2015. Customers who purchase a 2016 Jaguar R model on or after April 4, 2015 can participate in the Level 1 Course at a discounted rate of $495. The cost for all other participants to attend is $895.

 

Free for "R"s but not for "S"s? That kinda SuckS in my opinion.

 

I find it to be Really Spectacular news

 

I am attending the June 25 (afternoon) session, and Level 2 on June 26. Hope to see some of you in person out there!
