I would love to see a camparison vs a Porsche cayman or boxter I think any
of them with a s would be bad news to the lotus exige s but truely a lovely
car
I guess this is good fun, to drive
its in the movie red 2 towards the end of the movie
hello there, I know that Proton own Lotus, My father has a Proton too, it
just felt random seeing the steering wheel with the same bolt position,
that’s why I asked.
Exige is getting heavier, getting much bigger engine. It’s even getting
TCS! I think I don’t like the way the Lotus choose…
what a monster i <3 lotus go KIMI!!! ice ice baby
Lotus Lotus Lotus… Please bring this to the US as a street legal car.
Turbos whistle, not superchargers. Superchargers whine…
Im not one for automatics or tiptronics, especially in a drivers car like a
Lotus, but paddle shifters would fit this car nicely IMO.
Will the S model be available in the U.S.? I thought they had discontinued
the Exige here.
chris harris did a better review. more in depth. sorry
if only lotus did the smart thing and made this car 10 years ago like it
should have, completely dumbfounded why they didnt do this to the lotus
elise 111.. it would have meant massive sales for them
sounds like a porsche. love it!
Always loved the Exige.
The Exige (any) looks way better than the Evora. The Evora looks too
babyish.
1:46 that camera angle makes it look like the door is open haha
I dunno about sound, but in terms of performance, a Camry weighs like 1,000
pounds more than the Lotus. That’ll do it. 🙂
LOVE the new Mansory styling. So much better than Lotus’s usual stuff…
1100kg… LOL
Lotus are sports car gods. Would take this over a butt ugly Porsche 911 any
day.
I love this car!
love the sound! very sweet V6 sound with a nice whoosh from the exhaust
Having driven a Lexus ES 350 (Toyota 3.5 V-6) to 250,000 miles (405,000 km)
without a single problem, and performing only MINOR service, such as belts,
radiator flush, oil changes, plugs, air filters and so on, I can tell you
that the engine with supercharger will not only be powerful enough, It will
also run forever. Supercharger is good for power 100% of the time, but I
suspect many will opt for a turbo system where pressure can be switched up
or down depending on how you drive the car.
it’s my fav Lotus too!!!
It’s already Stateside! Just 20 went through! Google and you’ll find them
for sale here and there. Problem is, It’s not U.S. Street Legal (plus no
headlights for that reason), and costs $20k more than UK pricing. If those
weren’t stumbling blocks I’d trade in my ’05 Elise in a heatbeat for this
track monster. 🙂
What gives you an impression that it is not, in fact, the same engine?
Wikipedia “Toyota GR engine”.
Beautiful car, somewhat my dream car
omg it looks amazing
damn, it looks so much better
it’s been a while since you guys done a good review – well, this one is
awesome can’t wait for the new Esprit…
Stonkingly Fast…LOL
It’s way too heavy. A supercharged four would have been much better.
Can’t wait to thrash this car around on Forza
Toyota made them anyone???
sure the new power is great but i really don’t like the new styling, the
old exige S2 was a much, much, much better looking car. The New styling is
starting to look bland and generic, the looks just don’t make me want
it…….gonna get an older one instead.
