This 2016 F-Type S coupe pairs the rare six-speed manual with the supercharged V6, in Yulong White over Jet, and it comes with a freshly remanufactured engine. It sits on Cars and Bids at $15,999 with six days to go.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsWhat it's worth right nowThe manual F-Type is genuinely uncommon and commands a premium among enthusiasts. According to Cars.com and current listings, 2016 F-Types average close to $34,000, with clean examples generally trading from the low $30,000s into the low $40,000s, and the rare manual pulling toward the upper end of that range.AdvertisementAdvertisementFair value for a low-mileage manual example like this sits close to $32,000 to $42,000, most likely close to $35,000 to $39,000, with the rare gearbox and fresh mechanicals supporting the figure. At $15,999 with six days remaining and a reserve, the bidding should climb into that range.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsCondition and detailsThe headline here is the mechanical freshness. Finished in Yulong White over a Jet interior, it runs the 3.0-liter supercharged V6, rated at 380 horsepower, through the desirable six-speed manual to a limited-slip differential. In April 2026, at 25,363 miles, the original engine was replaced with a factory-remanufactured unit as part of a documented $34,846 service, after a misfire caused piston and valve-seat damage.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsThe remanufactured engine went in with fresh internals, and the clutch, flywheel, fuel pumps, timing cover, water pump, and coolant hoses were replaced at the same time, with an extended warranty covering much of the cost. Crucially, the work included updated OEM aluminum coolant pipes, addressing the F-Type V6's notorious plastic-coolant-pipe weak point, so the car's two biggest known vulnerabilities are now sorted.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsThe honest counterpoint is that the original engine did fail, though a documented factory-reman unit with fresh internals is arguably preferable to a worn original at this point. Review the invoice and confirm the warranty on the reman engine. There is only minor cosmetic wear, including exterior chips and a rocker-panel scratch, and an uninstalled factory front splitter is included.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsAdvertisementAdvertisementThe offerSpecificationDetailMakeJaguarModelF-Type S CoupeYear2016Mileage26,400 milesEngine3.0-liter supercharged V6Power380 hp and 339 lb.ft of torqueTransmission6-speed manualDrive typeRear-wheel driveExterior colorYulong WhiteInterior colorJetCurrent bid$15,999, with six days leftInterested in this 2016 Jaguar F-Type S Coupe?

Based on the C-X16 concept, it arrived for 2014 with sinewy, muscular styling, a snarling supercharged engine range, and a clear mission to challenge the Porsche 911. For 2016, Jaguar added a six-speed manual to the supercharged V6 models, a genuine rarity in this class and a gift to purists who wanted a more involving, analog driving experience in a modern sports car.2016 Jaguar F-Type S CoupeCars & BidsThat combination of dramatic looks, a characterful supercharged soundtrack, and the rare manual gearbox is what makes this particular F-Type so desirable. The S trim adds a sport exhaust, an electronic limited-slip differential, and adaptive dampers, sharpening the experience further. Few cars deliver this much visual drama and aural theater, and the manual version is the one enthusiasts increasingly seek out.My takeThis is a compelling way into a manual F-Type, and the mechanical story is what sets it apart. The rare six-speed, the low mileage, and the striking Yulong White specification would be enough on their own, but the freshly remanufactured engine and, especially, the updated aluminum coolant pipes address the two things that most often trouble these cars. A buyer comfortable with the documented engine replacement is essentially getting a de-risked example.AdvertisementAdvertisementFair value sits close to $32,000 to $42,000, most likely close to $35,000 to $39,000, reflecting the rare manual and fresh mechanicals against the original engine's failure. Before bidding, review the service invoice, confirm the warranty on the remanufactured engine, and arrange a pre-purchase inspection with a British-car specialist. Handle that, and this is a beautiful, rare, and freshly sorted driver's car.Disclaimer: This post is for informational purposes only. We are not a dealership or broker.
