The new Lotus Exige
« on: January 09, 2013, 08:25:16 pm »
There has been delay after delay with the new Exige. Dealers have only just got there demos, only one customer car so far and that was a mistake :rolleye: but they have already produced a cup version like mine and now they have a CupR version.
Have to say not many cars turn my head these days but I want one of these badly.    :party:
They are only track cars, though they are road legal

Couldn't resist my Gulf blue one, the APR was zero.   :signLOL:

This new V6 CupR will set you back about 80 grand, but should be giving GT3's a run for there money on track. Half the price and less than a quarter the running costs.  :driver:

This is lighthearted thread for light cars, lets not start another debate on which is the worlds best Golf. :indifferent:

Oft, Id have a exige v6 over a GT3 anyday of the week because money is an option. If it wasnt, id have both  :love:

The only thing I dont like about it though, is the fact the engine is from a toyota  :sick:
