picking it up tomorrow after three years in an ftype- the f type always got a lot of attention, I will admit it is a pretty car and sound is fantastic- Reliability another issue as well as the cheap interior- they were pushing hard for me to lease a new one- no sale

I haven't had mine that long and maybe the Blade Silver blends in more than some colors but I've had some people speed up on the freeway to get beside me. Two instances I remember are an older (maybe mid-seventies) lady at the gas station telling me how great it looks and an Aston Martin driver giving me a thumbs up. Oh yeah, the young boy on the freeway with his nose against the window looking at me. I couldn't help but punch if for a few feet so he would have an exhaust note to remember.
