Ace, I agree. Especially if it's used (it doesn't state that I saw). The one thing I hate about our cars is that they depreciate like a rock the first year and that isn't offset by the limited models.

Otherwise, very nice car and someone will hopefully enjoy it.

Oh, good, not a "for sale" thread so we can discuss...

starting price: MSRP, nice, will take a shill bid to get that going

"price near identical to an average 2007 Exige S" cuz if it really is only a 220, so is performance (OK, nice brakes)

"power upgrades available" ?? will the warranty go with it?

I think there may have only been 20 of these for a reason...

oh, and i like it plenty... were it offered at a resonable price. limited edition means nothing. i just don't ever imagine paying retail for a lotus. to make it special they should have bumped the power UP, not down, and delivered a car that would actually be in demand.

$0.02

Color is somewhat strange. But, I saw one in person this weekend and it really looks nice.

Does it seem like a left over 2007 model that they just added some special stuff to it in order to move the car?? It has the 2007 roof-scoop, and is the 220hp version. I would think if it were a 'special' 2008 they would have made it a 240hp and all the 2008 goodies...................
