Default test drove F-Type Coupe R Today

Good evening,

I test drove a Coupe R F-Type in Ultimate Black this afternoon @ Park Place Jaguar in Dallas. The dealership also had a Polaris White Coupe R that was sold already. I did not like the way the car looked in Polaris White at all (my personal opinion so please do not get offended); I was surprised. The Ultimate Black looked incredible. I went into the dealership thinking I was going to order White but ended up ordering Ultimate Black. The car is incredibly fast!!!!!! and super loud!!!!!



this is my build:

2015 F-Type Coupe R in Ultimate Black
Jet Interior
20" Black Tornado Wheels
Vision Pack
Black Pack
Power Lift-gate
illuminated doorsills
red seat belts

I do have a question though............are the rivets on the Black Tornado Wheels Black or Silver? The dealer said they were black but some of the pics online appear silver.

thanks,

Jeet

I have the exact car you're describing but as an S. Tornado rims, the rivets, they are chrome/stainless.

New2jag,

Do you mind posting pics of your car or emailing them to me so I can decide on those wheels or 20" black Cyclone wheels.

thanks in advance,
Jeet

I have actually decided on the 20" Black Cyclone wheels instead of the 20" Black Tornado Wheels. Since I am getting Ultimate Black with Black Interior and the Black Pack, the Cyclone wheels look very classy and the red calipers will stand out more. I think the Tornado Wheels are too busy with all the Rivets and the fact that they are chrome/stainless does not help the situation.

thanks,

Jeet

I totally agree with you on the combination you have chosen except I also ordered the black calipers.
