Lotus Exige

| Lotus Exige |
The track derived Exige coupe was intended for those who wanted an Elise
with a harder edge. With it's specially developed race like Yokohamas
and skirted and bespoilered appearance the Exige looked every bit the
race car for the road.
Perfomance was up considerably on the
Elise with a choice of 177 or 192bhp for lightning quick acceleration.
Handling was exemplary, and braking was solid thanks to drilled and
vented 11.5inch disks.
A little too rough and ready for everyday
road use (although it did have the practicality of a hard top) the Exige
made for a perfect track day car, as was Lotus's intention.
