Hmm. Those brake calipers should have been an obvious give-away, then. They're much beefier than what comes on the V8-S.

It is the F-Type R. All details here:

550hp Supercharged 5.0L V8 from the XKR-S. I'm assuming that 0-60 time is very conservative.

4 sounds about right actually. The XKR-S does it in 4.2 or so. I don't think the F-Type is light enough that it'd shave too much more off that figure.
The R-S really struggles to put that power down over the first few yards too. I don't doubt both would be quicker if you could hook them up properly.

This car looks just as amazing as the concept. Knowing what I'm looking at is a production car makes it that much more special.

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but I just went to build an F-Type coupe and found it to be £8,000 cheaper than the convertible. Eight grand!

I would take it over the convertible in a heart beat. Without the glass roof, unless it was a dark color... I wouldn't look good in a convertible at all.

Base price for the V6 and V6S is just over £7k cheaper, yes - which given that the overriding criticism of the F-Type was that it's £10k too expensive is a pretty good start.
The R Coupe is more expensive than the V8S Convertible though.

Motortrend clocked the convertible V8-S at 3.4 seconds to 60mph.

3.4? Sounds like a typo.

I'm sure it would change if I drove it but I'm getting bored of the F-Type now 
I kept seeing loads of convertibles and coupe prototypes before the car came out , and I love the noise of the V6.
It's just been publicised so damn much I've become bored of it, I think my imaginary £80k would go on a 991 Carrera S again now.

The only Porsche I would ever consider buying would be a first generation Cayman. Nothing else they build interests me in the slightest. I would take the F-Type over a 911 any day.

Going to edit this post instead of making a new one.
Just configured an F-type as I would like to have it. It's €72,820. That's about the same as a Porsche Cayman S (probably with a few options). Which one is my favourite. Well in this case, probably the Jaaaaagggg. Athough I like the Cayman S as well and Porsche is German, German technology, etc... .
Have you mentioned this in this thread?

My ideal F-Type is around £72,000. I love the coupe and the V6 S. For some reason, I'm not interested in the V8.
