Just bought an Exige V6

Just bought my car a few days ago,it's the first Lotus I own,in the past I had an Honda NSX , a Porsche 964 and a Porsche 996 turbo but you can't compare the Exige V6 with either of my previous cars,it feels like a race car for the street,just love it,it has the sport and the race option ,also airco.
The first update I will do is the Supersprint exhaust collector and sportkat,Larini also offers one but I heard the fitment of the Larini is not always perfect so I chose for the Supersprint..

You're going to make those of us in the U.S. cry...we cannot get street legal V6's here. Likely never will be able to.

That car would kick the **** of most street legal cars in the U.S. that can be bought for $150K or less.

Congratulations!!!!

Some 'track only' V6's are here, but it's an extremely long shot that the current car will ever be street legal here.

That's what I mean. I'm hoping that will change.

Brilliant job on the V6 purchase, other than my peculiar (apparently) dislike of black wheels that is one sweet looking machine. Your testament of the driving experience is pretty clear, as well as everyone else's wishes the US could have them. I have to assume the Evora is much heavier car if this one is so strikingly fast.

I like how it 'appears' to be a little larger than early Elises, unless your pics are just somehow generous in that respect. Again, congrats, you have to be a happy camper, just be careful with it!
