    Apparently mazda is making rwd inline 6 drivetrains? This is odd, considering the end of ICE and kind of exciting.

    Test drove an f type today, 3l manual soft top. Wasn't worth any more than the M4 so I left it

    Oh man, I love the F-Type. Make mine a manual V6S roadster and I’d be so happy.

    Why not get one?!

    With the spare tyre it doesn't even have enough space for a single suitcase so even the v8 is out for me could I afford it. I'm going on holiday next week and need to be able to carry 2 suitcases.

    Finding one at the right price is the hard part.

    Also, the trunk isn’t too bad. 7.3 cubic feet compared to the 9 I have now. Shape is a bit odd, but if you’re truly worried, there’s bespoke luggage to be had.

    Also, what’s a spare tire? Haven’t had one of those in years.

    Would you swap to the F-Type over the M4? To me ithe M4 is a better car overall. The BMW isn't necessarily the most reliable car out there, but I think it's a level above the Jag, as well as being decent for carrying stuff and occasionally people.
