but the Caterham got no cup holder... what a disappointment

[strandvaskeren]

What a retarded launch control, having to turn the engine off, then wait, then having to turn the engine back on while looking like an idiot for flooring the gas, it's just silly.. In my opinion a LC has to be dead simple to use. You are at the lights, the guy next to you gets frisky, you press LC, floor the gas and go like stink.. Then again an Exige does that without the LC anyway, so what's the point?

[superjervis]

would of been a more even comparison with the Lotus Cup 260 in terms of performance:)

[BugMagnet]

WTF blablabla to use the launch controll follow these 300 easy instructions....

I would prefer the VW model: step on the brake, step on the gas, foot off the brake, there you go.

@ archon808 i disagree, i love that classic small british race car look

[danthemanpatrick]

the CSR is really the world's greatest stocking stuffer

[rmlangille]

That's the stupidest launch control Ive ever seen. You have to start it while holding it at full throttle? They couldn't think of something less harsh!?!?

[migeru23]

biggest kitchen ive ever seen

[archon808]

The caterham is fast, but it is way way way too ugly.

[Gendo3s2k]

lol not only is it a woman driver, but she has a hyphenated name

[kenw30]

Love that cup holder.  Exige all the way

[Nkovalenk]

Woman driver. That's more dissapointment than no cup holder.
