The interior is much higher quality than my 2 series, granted 2 series is not known for a posh interior. The infotainment is a laugh, the paint is gorgeously done (7 mil pearl as opposed to my 2 mil EB metallic BMW).
We looked at an f Pace for the wife, even had a slot, when they came in they were garbage on the inside, like a Buick. I thought the high end may have been nicer, so I waited for one of those to come in but just the same. Almost felt pre-production. Passed on that one. F pace are selling great, f types not so much, so what do I know. People also like McDonalds...........

Well the 2-series is not even half the price of the F-type, a 6er is a more fair comparison. The last time i spent time with an F-type I thought the interior was just fine. Not the most engaging design but otherwise a OK for its class. Nice car collection btw!
I checked out 4 separate F pace models and all have this hard scratchy hard plastic lining the lower 60% of every door. I was honestly pretty shocked that such materials could make it to a high-end SUV. They wouldn't even be acceptable in a Civic. It's unfortunate because it's probably the most attractive mid-size SUV on the market right now, right there with the RR Sport and a notch above an M sport X5. I want to like it so bad. I'm amazed people who are buying them are tolerating the interior. Once the rattles pour in they won't be back.
