Lotus also did that with the Elise back in December 2003. I had a chance to test drive a Euro Elise with the Rover engine at Scottsdale Lotus. Truth is, it almost made me cancel my order since it was beat up pretty badly and had seen better days. I came away for the test drive with more doubts.

It's much better to test drive a car that is representative of what you're really getting. Probably why this Evora is not set up for test drives. I guess Lotus is still fine tunning it a bit.
