Jaguar looks similar but I prefer the 370z shape..
Just saw an ad of the Jaguar F something sports car. I had seen the ad before and thought it was a cool looking car but now I see exterior shape similarities with the Z and I prefer the Z.
Though that car has 550 horses and probably costs 2-3 times more. |

Two beautiful cars, no question.

The base starts at 65K and has 340HP, but also 332 lb/f due to the supercharger. Skipping the middle tier and going straight to the 550HP "R" variant starts at 99K.
Ignoring the price, I would take the Jag because of factory boost and the fact that it's not a five year old car / design.

The exhaust sound of the Jag is orgasmic! Would take the Jag any day. At 100k plus options, it cost twice as much as a convertable z and get 10 times more a$$

The F Type is gorgeous.

I'm going to have to disagree. The F-type looks soooo much better than the Z34.
Although the original S30 was designed to be the "poor mans" E-Type..... which one of those do you think looks better? (Note the Jaguar E-Type is the only car to have been in the NY Museum of Modern art IIRC). And my God the Series I E-Type (And D-Type) are IMO two of the most beautiful cars ever produced. Need on in BRG.

Love the new f type coupe is the sexiest car out there today...finally jaguar found its mojo, so much character and personality with this design. Z is similar but in looks jaguar wins. I wish they made a manual for the v6 version I would consider getting one

The F-Type is gorgeous. I have enough experience with Jaguar that I would never buy one unless I'd seen enough of these on the street to establish some kind of reliability record. Jaguar has always been known for extreme mediocrity in engineering execution.

Beautiful, beautiful car, but so is the Porsche Cayman. However, I just don't see myself in the market to blow $75k on a car. But I suppose that's why I got a Z.
