Aye it remains my dream car of dream cars and one of the ones I have never actually seen in the erm, carbon fibre. Bored of seeing Ford GT's now after spotting two in a week, these supercar owners have no imagination.

This thread is now two pages long and I can't believe no one has mentioned the K series yet. Get the full on Lotus experience.

Are you really ready for the heady heights of 122lbft? I just don't think the vx can handle it.

Aye, but that sort of torque is nothing compared with the thrill of the top end rebuild.

some dudes here in croatia made a twin hayabusa turbo exige :/ currently at 500bgp, still without intercoolers and water injection .. currently it does 1/4 mile in about 11s but they reach top speed after 3 quarters of the track and roll the remaining 1/4 of the track with the clutch pressed... their transmission is too short.. i bet it will break 10s with intercoolers water injection and a longer transmission.. the car still looks normal though.. the engines are not that heavy and they usually race it on track days i can post pics with the rear clam off if you want.
