Jaguar will honor the brand's racing heritage with a new
special-edition F-Type for the 2020 model year, the company announced
Wednesday. The F-Type Checkered Flag Limited Edition will race into dealerships
equipped with numerous special touches.
Based on the R Dynamic model and available in both coupe and
convertible body styles, the Checkered Flag Limited Edition is available
exclusively in Caldera Red, Fuji White, or Carpathian Gray. All coupes receive
a black-contrast roof paired with one of the three color options, while both
coupes and convertibles gain the Exterior Black Design Pack as standard, which
features extended side sills in, you guessed, black. Also standard are 20-inch
black wheels with a unique design, special badging, and red brake calipers.
The interior receives Ebony Windsor Leather and standard
performance seats. The standard delta aluminum center console trim is also
swapped for a dark brushed aluminum trim to compliment the dark leather. Buyers
also get color-contrast stitching in either red or cirrus. Checkered flag
branding is debossed into the headrests, and a checkered flag logo is present
on the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position, finished in a red leather
band.
All Checkered Flag Limited Editions come with an
infotainment system that includes a standard 10-inch infotainment screen and
premium Meridian audio. As for options, buyers can select heated and cooled
performance seats.
Jaguar will offer the Checkered Flag Limited Edition on both
the rear-wheel-drive F-Type with the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4
engine and the all-wheel-drive model powered by the 3.0-liter supercharged V-6.
The former produces 296 horsepower, and the version with two extra cylinders
creates 380 hp.
Pricing for the F-Type Checkered Flag Limited Edition starts
at $72,925 for a 2.0-liter coupe, and rises to $75,325 for a convertible,
including destination. Those who need the extra power (and wonderful
soundtrack) from the V-6 will need to pony up $95,525 for a coupe and $97,925
for a convertible.
The prices reflect about a $10,000 increase over the
base F-Type
coupe for a turbo-4 model, which starts at $62,625, and a $7,000
premium over a similarly equipped F-Type AWD with the supercharged V-6, which
costs $88,325.
