Don't you just love the Italians

The 90's was brilliant with the Merc's, Alfa's, Opel's and BMW's. The early 2000's were not too bad but now with only 2 manufacturers it could be better.

Interesting to see how it performs, seeing if its all image/fancy body kit and no puff!

And a walk around of the new Exige...Some very nice detail on the car....Red on the inside of the exhaust as per Miles 4200......They have thought about detail which I like...Just a shame they didn't do more with the interior as its almost the same as the old car and I would have liked to see more Evora interior in there...But still I do like it and I bet it will be a great drivers car..

They are making some very nice cars, i just hope they do sell as the cars they do make are superb, some of the best handling cars out there.

 

[Andyk]

They are that Adam......The feel you get through the steering is 2nd to none........

 

[GransportFan1]

Lotus have helped out many other car companies with the handling. I know they helped out Bentley with the Continental Supersports thing.

 

[Andyk]

Aston Martin as well.......You would be suprised how many engines have been worked on for other car makers....I'm sure its something like 80/ 90%.........Or it was a number of years ago...

 

[GransportFan1]

Speaking of Lotus, just been looking at this in the Evora section on PH, oh my she is stunning.

http://pistonheads.com/gassing/topi...y+Evora+Review+++Pictures+So+Far+-+Long+Read!

the guy is using a good camera but the quality of pics still do not do it justice. That really is the best Evora i have ever seen.

 

[Andyk]

Yes, read that the other day Adam..She is a stunner.....I must have an Evora at some stage....

I know this is sold...But what about this one...Love Burnt Orange...

[GransportFan1]

I would have the wheels gloss black. Evora in Isotope Green would look the business

 

[Andyk]

You more I see the new Exige the more I really want one........54k or not it would be on my list.....I bet it will handle and go like a dream...
