Like that too....there's some really nice designs coming out of the UK just now with this and the Morgan.

Re: Lotus Elite
Not bad but the side view looks a bit like a Toyota Celica to me...
I hope they design the interior better than the Evora's where they appear to have let the factory cleaner's do that one night before they signed the car off.

Re: Lotus Elite
I really like it - looks superb. If (and it is a big if) the price stays as advised then it will be some £60-70k cheaper than the McLaren and Fezza 458 so I wouldnt expect it to be quite as light/technically advanced. It is also being shown as a GT not a balls out racer like the 458 etc.

Owned one of the hearse style Original Elites when I was a teenager so great to see the name being used again
Re: Lotus Elite
I like the look of all of the newly previewed Lotus designs. Just have to wait to see what the real world performance numbers and prices will be.
I'm also hoping Audi will build the new Audi Quattro concept. Might be an interesting daily driver, particularly if they price it under an M3.

Re: Lotus Elite
Think Proton has lost it a bit with this round. The cars are all way, WAY too heavy. 2400# for an Elise? Crack smoking, that is...
It's obvious that Proton wants to play big and do it with the big boys, but they're dumping a core Lotus concept. I always liked the relative purity of Lotus but now it looks like they're going to pump it dry of all goodness and run it into the ground. They were different by being light, now they're just on the way to being another wannabe supercar builder.

yes it may be compared to a Multipla. Looks like another variation of the Aston Martin to me

Re: Lotus Elite
In isolation I quite liked the Elite but now I have seen they have released abt 5 cars that all look the same whether it is Esprit, Elite etc etc I am not sure abt it so much. There is unique to each model.
