red 111r on M8 west , last thurs mornin

Post by Jamie84 » Thu Jun 14, 2007 9:17 pm

hey guys , spoted a nice red 111r with white stripes headin west on M8 at roughly 645 AM last thurs morn.....young asian lady driving . really interested in this car because it sounded awesome. all the youtube clips I have heard of exhausts for elises/exige, personally i thought sounded like any other boy racers banger ! . But this 111r sounded totally different , very supercar like if you no what i mean , more smoothed , tuned sound as apposed to a rough induction kit sound. As i have not had the chance to hear many lotuses in person i am very intregued to see what set up this car had as i would like mines to sound like this when i get it !

I drove past it today (it is always parked near my office) and noticed it had a stage2 fitted.

I used to have a stage2 on my exige, but there are better sounding options out there, you really need to hear them in the flesh. I replaced the stage 2 with a 2bular Ultra- mine is on youtube under exige decat.

Welcome along btw :D

Subtle. Ish. :lol:

It was loud, but then the car itself looked loud even when it wasnt moving so I was fine with it.

Thats exactly the noise I was looking for when I went exhaust hunting.
Unfortunately I chose the silly option :D
