Pretty standard knowledge that low production supercars use parts originally from other cars... no need to custom make everything just for the sake of being unique.

^^ I think everything should be custom, for the sake of being unique! Also, to justify the crazy price tags.

If I were to buy an exotic, I wouldn't care if some parts were shared with cheap city cars. I'd care mostly about the insane performance and driving experience you can get from owning one of these incredible machines.

Oh and let's not forget about these being pussy magnets lol.

yup. Next time you see a lotus Esprit V8 with this style tail light look closer, the lenses read "Toyota"

nothing surprising though, I mean you pop open an Exige/Elise/Evora engine cover today it says Toyota too ROFL.
