Saw this bumping around the net. F all that “Hello Kitty” shit. This is what you should do with your exige.
Apperance is whatever, But what is really interesting is what’s under the rear bonnett.

Yeah, i saw that. That whole think is barely a lotus anymore, tho.
The chassis has been lengthened and the rear subframe has been replaced, it has new quarters, a new rear, and just tons and tons of mods.
But it’s fucking sick as fuck.

> Three variations of the PowerTech V8 at 2.6L (360 hp), 2.8L (450 hp), and 3.4L (560 hp) are available. With an engine weight of 95 kg, total vehicle mass does not surpass 750 kg.
Yeah, I’ll pass on the ZR1 engine and take the 560HP 3.4L please. 750kg = 1653lbs according to google. Should still feel like the original car but with way way waaaaaay more power.

That’s fucking awesome! But I agree, a lotus race car that weighs 2200lbs isn’t anything super cool any more. A lot of cars like that weigh 2200 lbs.
They need to find a busa motor they can squeeze 500hp out of and throw it in there or something 😃
