Jaguar F-Type R - maybe next...

I drove an F-Type R today and have to say, what a car! It may be next in line after I tire of this 507.

Any idea what my 2014 507 with 7K easy California miles on it is worth? Original MSRP was almost $91K. LSD and carbon fiber. plus a few other goodies to get the price up there.

Ftype R is a great sounding car. So you won't loose that by selling the 507.
You'll loose some room in the back.
It is a supercharged V8 so good amount of power. Should be fun to daily drive. Interior reminds me a little bit of a 'vette but more luxurious!
Unfortunately you'll be taking a hit on your high MSRP C63. Probably $60k for it. GL

It sounded great and ran like a bat out of hell. Less jarring ride, too, and that appealed to me. I'm thinking firesand on black. mmmm

Will do. My car is as mint as a 2014 507 can be.

Less jarring would be nice sometimes that's for sure

Ditto, my friend. I drove a client's F-Type R a couple months ago. Very nice car and I enjoyed driving it. That being said, if I had a choice between the two, I'd stick with my C63. I need to make good on my promise of letting him drive my car, but with snow season in full effect, it will be a few months until that happens. I'll report back on his thoughts once we can make that happen...

I prefer how the Jag F Type R sounds (stock), but not enough to consider changing cars. Although my wife loves how the F Type R looks.
