Most purists rate that as the model to have as far as F types go. Like the R its supercharged so no lag.
A bit like a Z4 on steroids. Maybe slightly heavier. Although the F type S rwd manual about 330lbs lighter is than the F type R awd.
At the end of 2018 TVR is coming out with the new griffith. But thats probably too expensive and its going to kill you for sure if it doesnt break down first...
I have tried a manual f type, not a big fan of that supercharged v6, throttle response is not the greatest and while the exhaust sounds good, the engine itself is not very balanced and feels a little harsh. It's not coffee grinder bad like a 350Z, but it's no n52...
