What are your thoughts on Lotus automobiles?
chinese brand rape
>>28706873Wdym? Their cars are better than ever, I'd have an Emira over a Cayman or A110 any day of the week
Would you guys rather get an emira or evora?
>>28706877>Their cars are better than everLOLLMAO, even. The Elise/Exige are peak Lotus, and they far predate being swallowed by the chinks.
>>28706877the idea is nice, the execution is flawedand you are glossing over the lineup of anyclone EVs
LotsOfTroubleUsuallySerious
>>28706877It's an Exige with a body kit and faulty electrics. Lotus customer support is dreadful, and the car is far too heavy to be a real Lotus. Mogged by A110, unironically.
>>28706887Aren't they Toyota Camry engines?
>>28706892>It's an Exige with a body kit and faulty electrics.sounds like a lotus to me
>>28706871None. They haven't been relevant since the 2000s.
big, heavy, and too much tech
>>28706910Based
In 2008-2009 you could pick up some failed banker-stooge's lotus for 30% the retail price and that was the last time the name ever mattered.
>>28706897Yes, they use Toyota engines.But everything else is British and made in a shed.
They used to be my favourite cars in the world until >>28706873The lotus-ford era of the 60s was beautiful and made some of the best commuter and race cars in the world.
Buy MR2Put 2GR in itSuddenly you have a evora for cheap.
>>28706871Their new cars look like absolute ass. As if they mashed together rejected Lamborghini and Ferrari designs.
Soulless Chinese trash for Arabs.
I have no Idea how they got from pic to a Chinese SUV but theose responsible ought to be shot.
>>28706871I knew they were a good thing when my retard muscle-car friend tried to guess literally anything about the emira we were looking at, unironically thought it cost 500k
>>28706871
>>28706892>A110>auto onlyRental-tier
>>28706871Old lotus was fucking awesome, all the way up to 2020 or so when they were still making the elise, exige, and evora.New Lotus is absolute garbage now the company oly exists to sell shitty rebadged chinkmobiles.
>>28706878I have an Elise, I want either or but leaning to Evora.
>>28706871My Evora 400 has been great. Always fun as hell to drive. It looks beautiful. And it hasn't had any maintenance issues after years of daily driving it. The only downside is the lack of dealers, but that only mattered when mine was still under its 36 months of warranty.>>28706878Evora, until the Emiras are actually faster than them. At this point, they are more geared towards comfort, so they are slower, heavier, and more expensive than the later series 2 Evoras.
>>28707465Dany Bahar is the reason.
>>28706871They used to be cool
>>28706871Old Lotus is cool. New Rotus is lame.
>>28706871Just mentioning their name now deserves a beating.
>>28707518peak enthusiast car no cap fr fr
>>28709457For small individuals with limited funds, sure.
