Umm, this things isn't that new - I thought that it's been out for several years in Europe. This 'new' one is the special "Espionage Version" - silly paint job, stupid interior fabrics for a sports car (silk?), and so on - the sort of useless cosmetic 'enhancements' that I would have hoped Lotus could stay away from. But I suppose they have as much right as anyone to make money any way they like..

I rather like the Elise. It's not pretty, but like the Enzo, it's beautiful how the design reflects its purpose and ability.
