Also, was doing some work at a house in West Van today. In the driveway was a silver BMW Z8, a dark gray new Vanquish, and a red SLS Roadster. No pics, but a mighty fine choice in cars.

I'm afraid the 7.3 is just a badge. The real deal with the Zonda engine was the AMG 7.3.

and Rob did trade his LP700 coupe for the Roadster. seems pointless to have two LP700s.

The brabus 7.3 could be a real thing... I think it's been spotted before and we've discussed it in this thread before

I'd give a testicle for this car. Anyone want a third? Or a second, again, depending on past circumstances...

Don't flame on me just because I think that this is a "sick car", had such a fun time driving it.

Good review and great pictures.

I had the chance to test drive a 2012 Elise (it was a purple one) in April, 2012.

The steering response was instant and it was a very fun car to drive like it was described in your article.

Hopefully, Lotus Cars will keep on pumping out new models for the foreseeable future... fingers crossed (due to their financial difficulties).

Yea I hope so too, I've always had a soft spot for Lotus cars.

Apparently they were just given a funding of 10 million British pounds from the British government so for the short time at least they should still be around.

Lotus made a mistake with the Evora. They should have stuck with the lighter weight, bone-dry, gokart type of vehicle instead of making a more expensive, a little bit more luxury, and heavier version of the Elise with useless backseats.

I believe that the owner of this aventador is actually a high school student.

Agreed.

I test drove the Evora right after the Elise last year.

It is louder than the Elise, with more power, but the back seats are totally useless.

aren't the back seats only there for insurance rates purposes? ie. 2-seaters cost more to insure than a 2+2?
