In case drivers in Central Houston did not happen to catch the news, the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show  was a spectacle for the ages with magnificent concept cars and thundering engines from all around the globe. Many automakers introduced new vehicles, Jaguar was a standout. Specifically we are talking about the formal unveiling of the Jaguar F-TYPE. Audiences were clearly impressed because since the show ended, Jaguar has already received more than 2,000 pre-orders for this high performance convertible coupe.

The new Jaguar F-TYPE is filled to the brim with new technologies that are far too numerous to mention here, so we will highlight the biggest features of this new Jaguar vehicle

The F-TYPE is all about personalization with enough options and trim levels to suit everybody's needs. At its core the F-TYPE is built around the driver's choice of three different supercharged engines. The first two are 3.0-liter V6 engines that can be tuned to 340 hp. or 380 hp. For those who want to fit the most power they can underneath the hood, there is the option for a 5.0-liter V8 that will reach a show stopping 495 hp.

All-aluminum body, intelligent stop/start, winter mode, precision tuned steering, high performance braking systems, 'Quickshift' transmissions, and active sport exhaust are all features available to drivers who are lucky enough to get their hands on one of these roadsters.

It is easy to see why 2,000 units of the Jaguar F-TYPE have already been spoken for.
