I agree they are gay but the one at the track if it's the same white one your talking about is running a stock turbo different intercooler pipes and 25psi with a tune and is running 12.3.s full street trim that isn't bad for the mods done but the price tag for one of those cars is ridiculous it's like $40,xxx.00 for one or something

the fastest ive seen that car go was 13.7 or so. didnt know it was in the 12s. for the price?... spend 10K more and buy a brand new lotus rather than an overpriced 4 door.
i constantly tell Jamie, the first $50K we have "kicking around" :lol: , im buying a used lotus exige, or a new lotus elise.

The Exige has a Toyota sourced engine!I still could not to pay any real money for a car with ANY Toyota parts,its just wrong,i can think of many engines Lotus should/could have used insted,they have not even proved to be all that durable either,frickin Toyota junk makes me MAD!! :x
