Lotus Exige S - V6 Supercharged ; 258kw @ 1100kg ; 0-100 in 3.8s

$140,000 - worth the money? /discuss

last batch of exiges went from 180,000 to 110,000 in less than 10 months, and often the low volume sales with optional extras means that many are unique to Australia. eg. there are only 4 black exige S' in Aus.

however, with the new in-house engine, servicing and parts will be interesting, really depends on how long the motor stays in production.

also, I remember when at a DECA one of the Elise's damaged the fibreglass panel at the front, which was like half the front of the car. $10,000 to replace new. not sure how much a patch-up would have cost.

but from someone who has seen, but never driven one, it's a great car for the mooney

Saw an Evora recently, fark they're a hideous car compared to the Elise/Exige

one night i was having a souv on lygon when some stupid muzz confused an evora for a celica. Had to put him right but the incident nearly ruined my souv. nearly because Lambs

Can someone aware me if your skylines have compliance plates?

I couldnt find one in my engine bay

Just need to prove to vicroads of the date of manufacture of my vehicle

Nissan fast shows it as May 1998. But might need a letter from Nissan for more substantial evidence

[TiTAN]

my compliance plate shows the year and month of import, not manufacture from memory.

owning a r32 isn't THAT bad man, chin up

[Birds]

That Lotus is amazing and considering how good value a 35 is compared to other supercar offerings, that thing will probably hold its own for 40k less. Either way, I can't afford one right now

owning a r32 isn't THAT bad man, chin up

Yes it is.
