Try a lotus and give it up club. Surely making the same mistake twice is lunacy.

That would surely depend upon what I paid for it ;) Makes your roadster look quite expensive :)

I have to admit that all reason went out of the window quite early on in the decision making process.

So less than 40k for a new one? Good stuff.

 

I might have to go order a new one now get in with the .org keeping up with the Jones club :D

 

Or just keep my depreciation free Porsche.

I must say it is tough call between the Exige and Evora... one I immediately felt right at home in, the other was a nicer place to be. Could I afford either... nah, did Mr Jct600 know that... nah. If I had the necessary cash... it would be a really fücking difficult call to make.
