Agreed. A bit lower down and it'd be spot on, then I'd like it a lot more than I do now! I don't think it's ugly, it's just not as good looking as the current Elise II :?

Ride height isn't flattering... or the picture of it head on doesn't do it any justice.

The car is OK but to me take the badge off it and it could be anything (cheap). Doesn't say Lotus to me which is disappointing.

I do no think there will be many about with the looks of it and the price of it. :?

However could be hugely wrong.


Everybody hated the Crazy Frog but that got to No.1 for a weeks too many :roll:
