Obviously some of you dont know enough about the history of Lotus to understand what the car is. Its a Lotus Eleven, the body was shaped by Frank Costin, brother to Mike Costin (who put the Cos in Cosworth), the chassis was done up by Colin Chapman along with Mac MacIntosh. The Eleven won its class at Le Mans, and won the Index of Peformance. Its not a Jag, its not Speed Racer, though i have to admit Speed Racer does ape the design, its "the" Lotus that put Lotus on the map. The immortal Lotus 7 was the evolution of the Eleven, and if you dont know what a Lotus 7 is, then you best look it up.
