With 150RWHP depending on spec, mid engine, aero, grip....they just tick all the boxes.....I came home and looked at my car and just sighed,,,,,,
That said, I walked away and nearly ended up buying one! Still might. You can't compare em to Cobras.... At least not to mine.. Their lateral grip is awesome... I'm doing some more practice in one in June.....

Thanks Matt. I believe that Lotus is phasing them out this year. Will try one this Friday at Brisbane.
