So we took delivery of my fathers Coupe on Saturday. And my family is in love with the car already. Caldera is a gorgeous color and the propeller wheels in person are so much better looking than they are on the Jag builder.
The auto-start stop caught my father out the first time it engaged and he thought the car had stalled. My brother and I are both not sure why anyone would describe the throw of the stick shift "long" it feels shorter than the throw on my M235i which also has a ZF 6 speed in it, possible the same casing actually.
So far my biggest issue with the car is that there are no touch points on the doors to other than paint or glass, so they're finger print city. But as far as issues go, I'll take it.
My mom and dad are visible (just barely) in the second picture.

Yes, I find it very strange and somewhat unsettling. The lack of hand brake is going to take some getting use to. The other thing that is really making itself known is a lack of footrest for the left foot when doing longer drives on open roads that do not require shifting.

I think the owner's manual describes using it when the car is in motion. I don't have it in front of me though.
