Its honestly not necessary unless your driveway is unusually steep or has a weird angle. The bottom center of the nose to the ground is a good 6" or so. I actually just ran into the garage with my tape measure to see the height, and its just a smidge under 6 1/2" to the underside of the center of the ground. Never had…

Way too expensive? How do you come up with that? Because your using the BASE MSRP for a GT4 Cayman? Sorry to hate to break this to you, you’ll NEVER find one like that. It’s a Porsche, it’s gonna have 10s of thousands in options. For shits and giggles, I just looked real quick on Google for “2023 GT4 Caymans for…

Having driven the Evora GT on many occasions as there is one in my garage (wife's car), the manual is fantastic! Direct, with a little bit of notchiness. The term "rifle-bolt action" has been used more than once. I've never had any issues driving it. It's a pleasuee to row through the gears (they are very close) but…

I’vesaid it before and I’ll always say it when my wife and I take her Evora GT out. That car is the modern day version of the original NSX and all that car stood for. And I'm not alone in my opinion. Many people say the same thing since the GT doesn't have the modern amenities the Emira has (power seats, touchscreen,…

Before you say anything about sound and revs in a way insinuating the Porsche sounds better, go find a Evora GT that has had the 3rd cat delete done (the useless cat for Cali only, to comply with CARB & noise, and has no 02 sensors attached) take it for a drive, put it in Sport, run it up to 7k in 1st and then come…

Branch out into the hypercar stratosphere? What? Not sure if your aware, but they do have the Evija as their hypercar. But remember, those hypercars you want them to “branch out” only sell in small amounts (the Evija is limited to 130 units all sold). Lotus needs to be more mainstream, more every day car like the car…

Rebodied Evora? Try again! It’s definitely not. Chassis is NOT the same. Similar but NOT the same. Just watch Harry Metcalf’s video when he visited the factory.

Alot of people were disappointed when Lotus didn’t offer a targa version for the new Emira

If talking about RIGHR NOW, as in 2023, then the answer for me is, and will always be this:

Only a few more years to wait. I'm in the same boat with this or something else. 😉

Now that I have the link to “latest” articles, I hopefully won’t miss these again. My 2 car garage would have to be a unique sports car, and a Radwood worthy sedan. My cars would be this:

Totally accepted, lol. I know it’s not a lot of miles, but it’s been documented, that some GTs had issues right off the bat, so it’s not without precedent. And sadly, no need for a 2-seater. She already have two other (Jag F-Type SVR & a ‘09 Gallardo LP560-4 😉). The Lotus won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. And if…

Fantastic write up buddy. Small world you mentioned yours is Vivid Green. That was the color my wife was going to get originally. Jacksonville Lotus had a brand new 2021 still on their lot and she was really getting ready to pull the trigger had the Lamborghini Purple GT not become available. In the end, she made the…

Looked through the entire replies and I didn’t see anyone who actually owns one. So I can add my .02¢ to the discussion. In my garage is a 2020 Evora GT. It’s my wife’s car. She wanted a manual sports car to replace her ‘69 Camaro. This was the #1 car on her list. Being I’ve been a huge Lotus fan for over 35 years, I…

The lack of close dealers shouldn’t turn you away. Just find a good British independent mechanic who knows Lotus and you’ll be fine. Parts are actually reasonable and the motor is basically bulletproof. One main difference, the N/A and S models are S1s and is a different chassis than the 400/GT. You have more room in…

Someone asked about favorite colors for cars a little bit ago. I said a particular color and my mind hasn’t changed. Best color on a sports car, is without a doubt, PURPLE! 👏👏

Thank you for the tip. I’ll bookmark the link. 👍

I wish I saw this question pop up as I have the best answer for a quintessential 90s car (but alas the mobile site doesn’t have QOTD at the top as you have to search for it). Anyhow, the car I think of when I think “90's car” without a doubt, is this!!

I totally agree with what you said in regards to price of what these go for with the markup. For that ADM price, go and buy the ACTUAL car Chevy used as the benchmark, the Ferrari 458 Italia. Those cars, albeit they came out as early as 2010, are around the $200-$230 range for early year cars, based on spec and…

Not weird at all. It’s EXACTLY what I do. All I look for are real cars that I’m a fan of. Any and all exotic cars, some muscle cars (Mustangs), and any real race car (GT40s) Oh, and ANYTHING Gulf Oil! I have all my HW and MB in bags, just waiting for my sneaker collection sale to go through next week (want to talk…
