Sweet merciful crap!!! Build me a slightly more roadable version (full dash, 3-point seatbelts, roadgoing transmission), stat!

No, THIS is a 400 hp Go-Kart.

Well, okay, 300 hp, but it still does the job. 🙂

Not a bad way to go, though. 😀

They had one of these on Top Gear, the only two cars that were faster on the track were the Ferrari Enzo and the Formula One car. 😕

I believe you're thinking of the Ariel Atom, another featherweight street-legal race car.

Who the fvck cares? It looks that way because it has to to function this way. I'd trade my Z06 for it in a heartbeat!

I knew about the Exige, but thought that it was just a hardtop version of the Elise. I can see now that it's much more than that. I want one and I want one now!!

The Exige is just the hardtop version of the Elise.

This one is a special one-off Lotus made for a super rich individual.

Did anyone notice that Apex has a Noble? What the hell is a Noble? Looks very pricey!

Actually, I think it's some cheesy kit car, powered by some lame, bottom of the line SUV engine. Ah yeah, the engine from a Ford Escape.
 
I saw one of those new Lotus' on the way home from work the other day. It was red and some chick was driving it. Man, it looked like fun though. That thing sounded sweet and it really scooted around when she got on it. She followed me almost all the way home but turned off in a neighborhood near me. I'm going to have to take a bike ride through there this weekend and see if I can find that car.
