Always a pleasure watching Tiff motoring.

Ian Callum really did an outstanding job with the F type's design - such a good looking car.

It truly is a real beauty, and i love that V6 noise it makes. In the end a few seconds on a lap are nothing, it is how it looks and makes you feel....no one is buying a regular Carrera for lap times.

Seems like the British cat is still making some noise...

F type V8S, 911 Carrera S and Audi R8

Automobile magazine "Three keys, three cars, three choices. Which one would I take home? If cost were no object: an R8 with the 525-hp V-10 engine. If I could have one built to order and someone else paid for the lease: a 911 with the PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission. However, if it were my own money and if this was to be my only car, it would have to be the F-Type"

Really the F-Type evaluations are very positive.
The Jaguar F-Type has a chance of being selected for the award Ecoty?

Ian Callum Talks Jaguar F-Type & the Inspiration of Jaguar Design!
Special guest Ian Callum, Director of Design at Jaguar, sits down with Angus MacKenzie, Ed Loh, Kim Reynolds and Jonny Lieberman to talk about the new Jaguar F-Type and the inspiration behind the new two seater.

The completely new roadster, arguably Jaguar's first pure bred sports car in decades, pays homage to the spirit of the E-Type of the '60s and '70s and features a range of powertrain options; from a 340-hp 3.0L supercharged V-6 to a 5.0L supercharged V-8 making nearly 500 horsepower.

The crew also discusses the challenges of balancing engineering with design, and the safety regulations and legal limitations that need to be factored into designing a car. [Via Motor Trend]
