New V6 Exige pics

[Brandon]

Jeez Brandon is going to be nervous on the first few test flights...I've been round his route and it has plenty butt clenching sections like blind corners and narrow bridges

...Yeah...We're going to have some fun! Think we're going to have to organise some track time, hopefully the weather will play ball...

As there does seem to be quite a lot of interest, please note that we are taking letters of intent. Once we get info on how to go about putting spec together, we'll allocate build slots on first come basis.

oops!

N1 has had 3 though...Ian is the third, is he not

[tut]

Officially he was not going to be yet, was keeping the V5 in my name, but Adrian F*ucks after he had been with them for a month, insisted that it be changed over to his name.

Are Lotus also launching the new supercharged elise at Frankfurt?

If so are there any pics yet

BINGO - there is my in to buy SNOB from you mate, you'll be down there spec'ing one up with Brandon in the next month or so!

Go on Benny, you know it makes sense ... I'll certainly be going for a test drive of one as soon as MMC have one in

Cheers,
Robin

Dont tempt me

Noticed from the Lotus website that they are not doing an isotope/krypton colour anymore

[Scotty C]

Looking forward to having a shotty

[mckeann]

i think a cayman, or a 2nd hand GT3 is still the sensible choice, but i would be tempted by thbt. Like scotty, i might have to have a test drive.

[shooomer]

pah.. I've had 3 GT3s and I want another Lotus

[campbell]

Neil, who EVER called you sensible?

Get yourself in one and video the test drive, post it on YouTube, and help Lotus with their "market research"

[Sanjøy]

i might have to have a test drive.

Can you let me know what day your doing this?

[Scotty C]

pah.. I've had 3 GT3s and I want another Lotus

Yes but have you tracked them or just pimped them out This is one reason I don't have one and let's not even talk about crashing one

Its not the 55k that's putting me off the Exige it's the running costs and the tracking costs.

[shooomer]

How many trackdays are you planning to do?

[neil]

More pics including inside here. Must admit I do want one, the cost to change for me just looks a bit after only having had mine a year.

You realise that with all this positivity for a new model, Graeme will faint when he reads this?

Gutenmorgen - Greetings all from my little wifi cupboard under the stairs on the Frankfurt stand....

I had been saying for a while that none of you will be disappointed.....this is one of the products that made me want to come and work here, even more than some of the future models. This is right up my street - and from the cars that I sold in Scotland for 11 years (the highest Exige percentage worldwide for a while, disproportiately high numbers of 2-11/160 sport/135R/340R etc etc) - it will be right up your street as well.

Full spec and pricing should be released very shortly; my internal campaign to get my new company car sorted starts now

I'm here until the 26th if anyone fancies a day out/rundown/beer etc
