Notice the cut-in lighting infront that wasn't on the London Show car? One of the Evoras that was testing on the Ring before had them and also the blue wing mirrors - I'm thinking it's the exact same one just without the disguise.

Good eye. See the black spots on the bodywork? These are probably the mounts where the camouflage was attached to. I guess the car is always stowed away in a garage next to the Ring. I should go and check it out ...

Lotus Evora - Lotus Esprit Forum

can you believe it - i was going to travel 120 miles to go to the motor show purely to view the Evora and there is one parked less than 30 metres away!!!!

It was in Norwich soon after it was at the Ring.

Canyon Red prototype - Evora Forum

Canyon Red spotted!! Where is Allan???? I like the black rocker panel (rock guard?). Makes it look even better as that section is kinda bland

I guess theres more colors here: New photos of production spec car - Evora Forum but you have to create an account

Looks like a new forum is tryign to steal the lotus users away from LT

I also heard a confirmed spotting driving around in Norwich, that same blue one.

I'm trying to picture it in Ardent red.

It doesn't look that much bigger than the S1 Elise. How do you fit two more people inside?!

^^^^

Once you see it in person and hopefully get to sit inside of it at the Los Angeles Auto Show, you'll see how an adult can fit in the back. It's hard to guage by pictures alone but, let me know if you're coming to the auto show and I'll see what I can do.

Looks more like a redesign Esprit and more like V8...possibly V10 engine

MPR · 08-16-2008, 07:06 AM

^ I think your right! darn.. looks kinda like a murc too!

V10. I 'll take the Lotus espirit over the lotus eagle then.

anyone who buys a Porsche or anything else over this Lotus is mental. This car looks amazing... (I hope those lights on the bumper don't make it to production)

...i'd get a kick out of pictures of them running the 'ring with four blokes in the car...

Bavarian Motorist · 08-19-2008, 10:22 PM

It looks really, really good. I actually ... kind of want one
