So i thought i would try get other peoples reactions to this new car - I took one out yesterday and my verdict is that the 370zGT wins.
I took the F-Type S without the Sports Exhaust system (but honestly i don't think this would make it any better)
The sound going though the gears was ok, but it honestly sounded like the exhaust was going to fall off, very tinny high pitched sound (I didn't like). Not that deep grunt i thought it was going to be.
The ride was very hard at all speeds and i felt every bump and ripple in the road & going up and down the road from Aberdeen - Loch Lomond i suspect after a weekend I would need to go see a chiropractor.
It is definitely a weekend run once in a while car, not for using everyday. Just another point is that if you don't have the spare wheel then you might get a small bag in, but dam if you have the spare wheel in then don't expect to get much more than a bottle of milk in the back.
However some good points, the speed and power are amazing, goes through the gears very well, the paddles where good no lag on the gear change (much like the zed). Handling nice and stiff very responsive.
I would not use in the normal D mode but found the S Mode better the D mode did struggle to find the right gear at low speed, 0-40 ish
Looks amazing - But looks better than it is.
Would i get one? - No.. The sound lets it down as does the hard ride & tinny boot, however if you where using around town to show of to the ladies then maybe but for me not a drivers car.
