2016 Porsche Boxster S v Jaguar F-Type V6 S comparison | CarAdvice

It has almost become a landmark moment in our evolution as humans. A neat title to slot in after all that complex baby, child, teenager, adult transition stuff.

The midlife crisis.

More than just a Faith No More song, but a chance, once the children are relatively self-sufficient, the career trajectory is on a clear path and ideally there is a bit of equity in the family home, to put the focus back on yourself for what might not be a particularly smart decision.

Jag wins in appearance inside and out. And that sound... the best sounding V6 and V8. Just amazing.

I was kinda thinking of my trading my F-type in for a boxter, but a 781 GTS, so flat 6, but then I went outside and saw my car and changed my mind

[Peter-MH]

Head says Porsche, heart says Jaguar!

Two best car reviewers in Australia, you guys should do more videos together.

0:37 ''old mans jag'' what is he even talking about? is he insane? the f-type suits all ages

[adammarkowitz]

I've had both cars and you guys are right on the money, but my '17 F Type has an 8 speed transmision which is not slow-shifting, it's delightful. Of course nothing beats a PDK. My Cayman S ('17) had a stick which was as good as it gets. Two magnificent cars: one more for the track, one more for the road. Both beautiful looking as well.

[redness]

Yep another great review. Natural, good to see!

[ButchRahman]

Do you want clinical, or do you want a car that excites you?? Me too. Give me the Jag!!!

[odinikita]

I bought both!! Both great but different enough to entice for different reasons. Correction i dont have the 718 but the 981 boxster s.
Having both cars, i can say these guys have got a few things wrong, for example the jags auto is not slow, granted it aint a pdk but the best torque converter box in the world, ZF 8 sp.
Bosxter s is 100%, the f type 90% with most other sports car/cars a very distant 50% behind.

I have the F-Type S coupe (which looks better than the convertible). I like the Porsche, but the Jag is so sexy and fun. That exhaust never gets old for me. Its far more fun imo.

[brucemoore]

I traded my 2014 Porsche 911 4S Cab in on a 2016 Jag F Type R and never looked back! The Jag is a freaken beast and pulls the Porsche to shame! 550hp, 1/2 sports car, 1/2 muscle car, all luxury and style!

[mackan]

Wonderful review with great humor as well.

[Pooiepirate]

Beautiful cars, i love my 718 S but boy do i wish i had that F Type Sound

[julienfavard]

the jag is by far the best !! going to buy one very soon.

[tagusan]

The vid's great and all, but it would've been nice to also see the power in both Kw and HP. I understand every country has different standard units, but that would've saved me a consultation with Google. That doesn't keep it from being insightful though. Great vid!
(If you did mention it some where in the vid, I'm really sorry if I missed it. I'm not necessarily the most attentive of fellows)

[ckozfilms]

Great review guys. not too technical, but enough info for a normal dude looking for the vital info. Both cars are beautiful...its a win/win!

[jesseyoannidis]

I'm pretty sure the F-Type has an eight speed, not a seven speed like said in the video?

[jasonbarracks]

Brilliant Video! Very good synopsis on each car!

[TMmwangi]

One of the best reviews i have watched. But did you just call me stupid at 10:04

[unions]

all day long ; I would say one of the best looking sports cars today❤️❤️❤️
