How much is the current model?
(over here it's 63k for the S, and 81k euro for the cup 260)

£54k thats before you add options :blink: your getting into that price range where you can chose some very nice cars, will be intresting to read reviews on this against other cars.

I like it. I like the nice smooth lines. The price is the bit that puts me off though, I'm far too tight to spend that much.

Least you can see out the back!

Hate it. Don't like the looks and if I had that much money that certainly isn't what I'd spend it on.

Think Lotus are making a massive mistake with their new business direction.

Isn't this why Lotus went under before? Getting a bit too big for its boots? Pricing is crazy, the evora we were talking about the other day for £120k :drink:

Looks more like a development of my Europa than of an Exige, or is that just me?

Not sure about the rally car, but the 'standard' model, hmmmm... Ticks a few of the design boxes I'd like. • Clear engine cover thumbsup • Rear visibility thumbsup • 5 stud wheels (hopefully 112) thumbsup • Aggresive revision of Elise arse thumbsup

Have to agree the engine cover looks great. I think the main styling issue for me is the front end (looking kind of porsche) and the lack of an agressive roof scoop. Bizarely, if you look at the rally version, the back of the roof scoop dont actually feed into the engine bay. :blink:
