Automotive lust!

Sign me up. Not only a sweet looking, fantastic handling ride... but it's actually got room for my daughters. Now I need to win the lotto or rob a bank.

its a stretched exige... with seats.

supposed to be roomier than most 2+2 layouts but still a 2+2.

after going training in the back of jag xjs's Porshe's, alfa GTV's and fiat coupe's. an decently sized 2+2 is very much looked forward to

:drool

I especially like the hood

I think its pretty cool. I saw a test drive of it done on the speed channel, one evening.

I wouldn't want one though. It would probably give your average car theif an auto theft boner.

true. this is why people who own such vehicles usually have it like in one case, a friends lister le mans, in a locked garage in a fenced property with broken glass cemented on the top of the walls

Actually... I think most car thieves go for popular models that they know they can sell all the parts off of. :

Yep, insurance is higher on any one of those vehicles in Michigan because of the higher theft rate. It's seriously weird. You'd think they would choose a brand new expensive car over most of those ... but they wouldn't. Mine's actually got a lower theft rating AND, prior to 2007's models, they had an issue with the door, if you smacked it in the right spot, it would open right up.

(Actually the site is a little wrong -- they fixed the issue with the 2007 and later model years)

Lots with bashed door claims, but not an extrodinarily high theft rate.

As for the new Lotus ... Wow. I really like it.

A beautiful fucking car! In black on black please.

[creatureofthenyte]

After thinking about it just now, I don't think this car would be my style.

If I were to lust after a new car, I would lust over the all new 2009 Dodge Challenger, with the 6.1L 425HP Hemi V8.

korean ownership really has turned lotus around
