21 is too big and gives it a riced look.

For example when the rims are so big you don’t even look at the car itself. Like fast and the Furious.

Jaguar changes its colours more frequently than people change their socks!
I had a lovely Kyanite Blue 2010 XKR, but that colour was only available for two years. And my F-Type is allegedly Glacier White but the same colour now seems to be called Yulong White.

Very very old thread, but just got my hands on an F-Type R and I'm absolutely loving the beastly roar of that engine. The acceleration is insane, and don't even get me started on the sleek design. Can't wait to hit the open road!

Hey there! The thrill of driving a sports car like the F-Type is just something else. The curves, the power, it's an experience like no other. Personally, I'd lean towards the V6 because of the balance between performance and everyday usability. The V8 is a beast, no doubt, but unless you're hitting the track often, the V6 should be more than enough to scratch that itch. As for the mods, I'd suggest starting with an upgraded exhaust for that sweet growl and maybe some suspension tweaks for better handling. By the way, if you ever need to move your car, there are these car relocation services that can come in handy.
