F-type 340 vs 380

[Wayne95]

Hi All,

Just speccing up an F-type coupe v6. Looking at the prices and options I want. :

Manual
Performance seats
Glass roof
19 in wheels - not sure which ones
Possibly big brake kit for a bit of track work

The question is where to start, the base 340hp or S version. This adds 9k to the price for a few horsepower and adaptive suspension from what I can see.

Has anybody tried both and can you feel much difference in fast road driving. I read a review of a base convertible and it came out pretty good

Thanks.

I read the other thread and it seems the S is a good improvement - I'll just haggle a little more to get some off.

9k still sounds a big difference though..

Yes had a TVR S a long while back before a couple of 911's and other stuff.

Decision is between the F-type and a 911 of some flavour, could be 991 or 996/997 turbo, or even a 4s.

I think the F-type is edging it, perhaps not as totally complete as the 991, but more fun at realistic road speeds.
