The interior of this one looks like an Audi A8 when compared to the interior of an Elise, which is about one step more refined than a NASCAR interior.

I like it, but wonder if Lotus is starting stray from their core values by adding a back seat. What's next, the Lotus Wagon? the Lotus SUV?

If only BMW still built cars, that were as involving to drive as the Elise/Exige.

This car looks great, I like it.

Any word on the price?
