man the car looks gorgeous. if the rear clam is pure CF, it's gonna cost a lot of money to replace should something undesirable happen.

Yeah, I have a CF cup roof on my 07 Exige. No headliner. GREAT place to put one of SweetDaddy's Colin Chapman signatures!

No the clam isn't carbon fiber - but you do bring up a good point about this version. It is unllikely, with the revised body style next year, these parts will be readily available. If a Sport 260 gets hit, damaged, etc - it is going to be extraordinarily difficult to duplicate this. Those exposed areas on the mohawk, the section between the hatch and roof, and the front panels will likely never get duplicated to what the factory has done. I also have a concern about the availability of actual Lotus scoops and splitter in carbon fiber.

Hey John....How about a trade ?

Does Lotus (or anyone) sell the CF dash top? Looks sweet.

I'm planning to show up there around 9:30 or so. Sounds like fun even if i'll be the slow poke as I'm green to the car.

Segue to the topic at hand:

If someone bought your titanium 260 they could come too

take care,

^^^ Yes

Tis true...My sweet storm titanium 260 sport is still Homeless ! Homeless I say ! - It's just sat here peering out of the showroom window , sadly watching all the regular cars pass by on I-64 at 70 M.P.H -- all smug and stretching their legs.. Yes she is just sitting here all cold and unloved and with a virgin-esque 13 miles on the odometer. Poor 260

Shame on you Lotustalkers

For the love of Chapman ! Somebody buy the 260 of us !
