Are you sure that's a Lotus Exige and not a honda?

How many f*ckin' threads are we going start about the same freakin' car for christ sakes. I am surprised the universe hasn't imploded from the reverse polarity caused by failure to use the search function.

mark, you get the award for funny post of the day.
i actually had to do a double take, when i saw the title of this thread

i'm putting the over/under at eight for threads started on this very same topic... and for the record, this one makes four.
not a real challenger for the portuguese barn or charitable espirit, yet, but we're only about 36 hours in...

Hey, I am with you, it's just assinine. Everytime I log on I see a post with ". . . 240" in the title and I think it's the same thread only to realize that there are only three replies. OH NO!!! It's another one.

Maybe there is something to that rumor I heard about each country getting their own Exige. Which means by the time Lotus USA gets the Exige 650 to market we'll have paddle shifters, twins superchargers, 295 series tires, active diffs, and a pit lane limiter.
