3 Drawbacks:

- Expensive
- Noisy
- Can’t be fat ;-)

I’ll take it.

    Anyway, the CAR is awesome. The Lotus Exige 265E looks like it’s got the kind of power you can only dream of — without CO²-ing us all to dead. :D

    Lotus Esprit 2002 Anniversary Edition V8

    Brute force, true to its Esprit nature, and a jaw-dropper as always. I need $100k quickly, guys!

    A hot vid to match — driver: Jim Graham

    I’m not even going to ruin the fun for you — enjoy!

I have to say the Exige shows how great it handles… I haven’t had the chance of driving one of these on the track, but I can only imagine the pure joy of taking corners in something that just sticks to the asphalt.

    There’s no info on the driver, nor the exact specs of the car in this vid — but it’s still very much worth checking out!

    By the way: more Exige videos coming up, seeing as an exige-owner e-mailed me earlier this week telling me he’ll soon be uploading some street driving vids of him cruising the beautiful city of Barcelona… KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED!!

The Esprit is probably the most classic of all Lotusses, and one of my all-time favorites. I even remember driving it constantly in Test Drive 1 back as a kid…

    The V8-engine sounds like a dream — BAMNFS sounds like a lucky bastard… Enjoy!

Driver Dean Evans pretty much starts at the back of the field, but quickly catches up some of the other cars ahead of him…

    Probably the most exciting Elise-race I’ve seen from a cockpit. Good stuff! :D

    Just one thing: why was Dean at the back of the starting grid? :D
