Here’s a riddle: What’s cool? If you guessed the 2,000lb. 190 HP Lotus Exige… you’re right! This beast goes 0-60 in 4.7 seconds, corners like a go-cart and still manages 29MPG on the highway with its Toyota built engine.
Did I say Toyota? Yes, so pay attention. This means that purchasing an Exige is kind of like getting two cars in one. On one hand you get an official British Lotus supercar (think James Bond). On the other hand, you get your mom’s reliable Toyota.

Finally, a quote from Automobile Magazine:
“On a track or an extended stretch of winding road, even a Porsche 911 would have to work hard to keep pace with the Exige; there are few more enthralling or dynamically capable cars for any price.”
Hmm.. The lotus exige is damm good I’ll give it that but I still prefer the elise much more, for example the new elise SC has a better bigger engine in it allowing it to do 0-60 in 4.4 seconds (faster than the exige), corners just as well if not better and is STILL cheaper
few solid videos of the exige:

In the example above, the page header and intro text prints. I’m trying to suppress that as well.
