The 2014 Jaguar F-Type might be one of the most highly anticipated debuts at the 2012 Paris Auto Show, and Jaguar didn't disappoint. This new sports car is pure hotness in every sense of the term.

Representing a return to Jaguar's sports car roots, the new F-Type is a two-seater convertible with an aluminum structure. It is a light car with ideal weight distribution. The styling features LED taillights and tapered headlights. There are two character lines that Jaguar is calling bloodlines.

Three engine options are offered: a supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 rated at 340 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque resides in the base car. The S model is rated at 380 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque while the range topping supercharged 5.0-liter V8 S is rated at 495 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. All models get an eight-speed "Quickshift" automatic transmission with paddle shifters.

The 2014 Jaguar F-Type will go on sale in the middle of next year. For more details be sure to read our full preview here.
