Used 2017 Jaguar F-PACE S

Recent Arrival! 2017 F-PACE Jaguar S Awards: * 2017 KBB.com Brand Image Awards. We opted for the R sport, which means the 4 cyl engine, and while it's not a rocket ship, it's plenty fast at all speeds, and has a ton of torque off the line (almost diesel like). We get about 23 all around in the car, and that's mostly commuting and getting 'on it' on the back roads on the weekends (Western Mass, Berkshire county roads are great driving roads). The adaptive cruise and lane keep are effective but not intrusive. We get about 27-30mpg on the highway. We tested the X3 40 (the bigger engine model), which was beyond disappointing, the RDX, Levante, XT4 (it actually impressed me a lot, but I came in with low expectations- but the interior was probably the best in terms of ergonomics and ease of use), and Stelvio- which was about equal to the F pace in terms of sublime handling and ride, but the interior ergonomics were really wonky, and no ventilated seats were available, and it was slightly smaller, and lastly the Cayenne, which was also nice, but something about it didn't seem to click for us. We came from a GLS450, and decided the new ML series (we wanted 2 rows only), which was the other finalist for us, didn't have the same driving experience, although it was pretty good. In about 5 months we have not had an issue (can't say that for the Ascent Touring we also purchased new last year) with anything on the car. It's not an inexpensive car, but if you want a sublime driving experience, beautiful styling, a relatively large interior for the segment, and a significant amount of standard safety and tech, the F pace is a great choice. Yes, it comes at a modest premium over some of the competition, but for us it was well worth it. Another nice secondary positive is that you won't see one on every corner. If all you care for is an appliance to mindlessly take you from point A to B, buy something else. Anyone who is considering an X3, Macan/Cayenne, or other performance SUV, would do well to test drive an F-pace. This is a strikingly designed car, the exterior is gorgeous, and the two-tone interior is also very elegant. Ergonomics are very good. The seats are incredibly comfortable, and the heating and ventilation features work great. There are so many adjustments everybody can find a good seating position. Heated steering wheel gets very warm quickly, which is great on a cold morning. We have the heated windshield, so scraping ice is never really an issue in bad weather. The second row is more spacious than anything we tested, which was important because our son is 6'2", and the rear seats recline a little bit so he has plenty of room. The cargo area is enormous for the class. The Meridian audio system sounds fantastic, and has great mid-range and bass. Music sounds very true with this system.
