We had an SCCA/ITB scirocco and painted it day glo safety orange. It looked just like that, but only for a few weeks. It faded really fast.

You know - and I'm being 100% serious - I just got a dead pixel on my monitor that won't come back, and it's right where the Exige was on the screen in the "later that night" version of the pic above. Probably an odd cooincidence?

You guys quit making fun of my car. I was always forgetting where I parked at the Mall.

hope the driver doesn't want any kids..

if you get a dead pixel on an LCD monitor, search for one of those red/green/blue videos that can sometimes remove them, it really works even though it sounds like a typical late nite infomercial, but only on certain types of faults..

I'd rather have an Exige, especially if it had (reliable ) forced induction. The Gallardo was a wonderful car with tons of power and incredible braking and cornering for its weight (I told the instructor afterwards that it "felt like a big Exige"), but my Exige feels much more raw in comparison.

can't Lotus paint your car any color you want?

I've just got to find out what color that is or where it's from.
