I am pleased to introduce all of you to my beautiful new R-Sport! The Italian Racing Red is indeed a showstopper!! I am thrilled to have it safely ensconced in my garage, after 4 months of nervously waiting to see if the car that I ordered would be the same one that was delivered.

The technology concierge who walked me through some of the features of my car commented on how much more sophisticated the tow feature is on the newer cars than the 2016 F-Paces that she has been in, and on how much better the cameras are, especially the ones that face rear. Just FYI.

I take El Jefe into Capitol Shine for XPel and Ceramic Pro treatments on Monday, thanks to BPMBA's recommendation. The Jaguar manager told me that I was making a mistake not having them do their paint protection package instead, (and I was tempted since it was half the price) but at the end of the day I just said "no, thank you." At that point I was so pissed with the dealership that I just wanted to get the **** out of there before I threw something.

I'm happy to see that you finally got it! Looking forward to seeing it in person in a few weeks.

Congratulations and a full welcome to the F-Pace Owners Club!

Gorgeous....love seeing another happy face! Nice touch with the black pack too. I was unsure what was going on when you posted on another thread about dealer problems. What do you mean about the tow package? How could it be more sophisticated?

Since I have not seen the tow package on earlier cars, I don't know what to compare it to, so I am not sure specifically what she was referencing. Apparently in her Jaguar class they discussed the Tow feature technology was to be improved.

it's about time! Gorgeous car. What was that you drove to the first meet-up? A white Audi sedan? How different does your F-Pace feel?

Nice color!!!

Yes, indeed, that is a positive turn of events in our favor.

I had planned on putting red calipers on when I was getting the Ammo Grey, as I felt it needed some flare. But, the Italian Racing Red has so much flare, that red calipers would be overkill IMHO.

Thanks for translating GRVR. But, even I know that "sick" means really good when used in a sentence like this
