I personally hate toyotas, but i must admit their engines are very reliable. Plus after lotus modifies the engine, it is a completely different engine
The driver is Roger Becker, who is now a director of Group Lotus plc and was the driver double for Roger Moore in the Esprit in "For You Eyes Only" Bond film in the 1970s.

My reventon smokes all of these shitty average income cars. You can throw your elise in the trash, nothing compared to mine. If you are using after market parts you know you bought garbage.
wow youre a real fuckhead. were looking at a 60,000 dollar car here and youre comparing it to your lambo? youre a complete idiot. of course it will smoke this thing, you spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to go fast and make your dick seem bigger. lets race sometime, my R1 will smoke you so bad you'll probably start crying.
Good job! I have 06 Elise with track pack plus over $10,000 worth of after market parts for track use. I still want to buy Exige for my wife but Evora maybe a better car.
But why pay the same for less? The Evora is quicker, more economical for a start. Really it beats the Cayman in almost every way you can think off. Also any Lotus buy will almost certainly be more exclusive than it's rival.
to be honest, I`d have preferred it if lotus had stuck a 3.5L turbocharged engine in the elise, and refined that chassis and suspension. these changes to the elise would still make it lighter than the evora.
The cayman has more development and updates behind it, whereas the evora is a new car. the cayman looks far better
Lotus cant only have the elise it's just not a viable business plan. They need a maturer car than the Elise and the Evora fits the bill perfectly. Still i think there will be hotter Elises in the future maybe even something along the lines of what you suggested. As for the looks the Evora isn't the greatest car ever but it seems to grow on me all the. Porsche styling has been boring for about 9 years but the Cayman is the best looking Porsche. Still neither is a patch on the old Esprit.
I don't know about you, but my Elise without super charger is quick enough for me. I can hang with Nissan GTR in all turns. If you want to go fast on straight, buy a Vett or something with large engine. If you want to enjoy corning and G - force, buy Lotus.
you are an idiot if you think lotus has better initial quality/mechanical quality.. porsche builds the most reliable cars in the world right now. go look it up at jdpower's website.
British cars aren't generally sound compared to German cars, but I wouldn't compare a Cayman to an Elise. Two totally different things. Honestly, if you had a 4x4 Porsche, would you really go off roading in it anyway?? If you want to compare cars, I guess you would have to compare an Elise to a Boxster. Porsche still wins in that category.
My family owned two boxster (basically Cayman w/o roof), Turbo, and now Carrea S4. We think Porsches are nice car but they are "boring" to look at. I also have Lotus Elise and I get 500% more attentions from people. Porsches are just another good cars. To me they are very fast MB.
They are the only German production cars that are a direct competition to Lamborghini and Ferrari. That's special. Plus they are one of the only car makers who still use a manual with foot clutch on their GT cars. As far as calling them fast MBs....ehhh. No comment.
Have you driven latest Porshes? Interior, smell, feels are almost identical to MB! Of course Porshe handles, breaks and communicate with driver better than MB. But general feel is still German (like MB). it doesn't have "exotic" feel. Newer Ferrari and Lambo are becoming more German car like (after all Lambo is owned by Audi). This leaves Lotus as the only ture hard core sports car manufacture left on the Earth.
@tennisplaya1869 I agree. As I Wright Renault arguably make the best racing car engines available today, currently beating the likes of Mercedes and Ferrari.
The Elise and Exige use an engine co-developed with Yamaha. It's not a Toyota only engine. The Evora uses a Toyota only engine which was not designed for sportscars. It's just a standard V6 engine you get in a Camry.

Ugh, a Toyota V6? No thanks. I'd have taken a Honda V6 or a Ford V6, but I will not be buying a pretty new toy with a Toyota V6. It's a shame because I really liked it on their website, but it doesn't seem that exciting.
I would love a Honda or well-tuned Ford V-6 as well, but the Toyota 3.5L is a superb engine. They're torquey, very powerful, and silky smooth (more than the any Ford Duratec and maybe even any Honda J-Series).
All it really needs here is maybe a slightly higher redline and a snortier exhaust. The Toyota factory supercharged 3.5L would've been nice for the price, too.
I prefer the exige. this evora is still a really good car I think, but it doesn't appear to be as aggressive and besides it doesn't have so much more power considering how much more it weighs compared to an Elise or Exige. So it's not the best Lotus, but it's still really good compared to the many boring "sports cars" which are way too quite and definitely too heavy!
This wasn't designed to be in the same category as Exige. The Evora has a boot big enough to fit golfing clubs, full leather interior, air conditioning etc all these just tell you its market is going against the Porsche Cayman. I would prefer the Evora as the interior looks good and quiet when you drive at high speeds :))
