For me it seems out of proportion.
Quite "hippy"

I hope its one of those cars that just grows on you. I think they may have got it wrong, but I have thought that about many a car in teh past and ended up loving it.

looks good in motion :thumbsup will reserve judgement til I see one in the flesh though.

Why do they always show videos of a car getting sideways (like fifth gear), it tells you hee haw about how the car handles.

I too hope it looks better in the flesh, but don't forget the point is how it drives, if you wan something that looks nice buy an Alfa.

Having seen the car at MMC I think it does look better in the flesh.

Personally I love it in white and having been a bit sceptical about the interior it gets a big :thumbsup in black /red, sooo much better then the magnolia in all the other pics( & the showroom car).
Finances permitting I feel I might just have too :D ( subject to: getting a test drive of one rather than ordering now , permission from SWMBO & not at the £60k quoted for the first fully loaded batch :? - so that gives me time to save up on three counts)

Hey Graeme, with todays advances in surgery, maybe we could exchange a few inches.

It has really grown on me since I saw the first launch pictures. Much better looking than a Cayman to my eyes, and that has to be its arch rival. No matter how good the Evora is though is it is going to be tough for Lotus flogging a new 50k car with the economy in such dire straights - all new car sales are falling off a cliff.
