For those that are waiting for photos of the "Eagle", the latest issue of ProActive (Lotus' "magazine") has some photos of them testing the "Eagle":

Edit: Whoops as pointed out below, it is a test mule with an Esprit body. Still ProActive is interesting reading...

Interesting. The back end looks like an old Esprit...sort of.

It _is_ an Esprit.

The mule is supplied by Lotus – a well-used Esprit shell tantalisingly
clads the Eagle’s chassis and drivetrain

Thats just a test mule

Well I'll be damned.

Thank God! rotfl

So, the photos are kind of useless?

Yeah, but the article is interesting. Heck, the whole 'zine looks interesting.

Doh!!

I hadn't had time to read the article, just downloaded the ProActive issue and skimmed it and saw the photos.

Then I posted the link. :thwack: <--- Me

The article refers to a well-used Esprit shell that tantalisingly clads the Eagle chassis.
But, that apart, it's very good reading.

 

[LARRY]

Good read...yeah!

I wonder if the Eagle will come with Touring wheels ?? :nanner2:

Okay... I'll give you that one since I screwed up. But that's the only "pass" I'll give...

I guess that this one gets closer to it, but can it really be a 2+2?

Those back two must be leprechauns.

New Lotus Eagle Spotted Again

The top line looks like Elise Hardtop line, take a look...

 

[andykeck]

That might be the worst fake I've ever seen in a major auto book.

Arnie Johnson at the Mitty this weekend said that the Eagle looks a lot like the M250 concept.
