2007 Exige S with approx 8700 miles.  This Exige is an over the top track prepped fire breathing monster.  It is well sorted out, extremely fast, extremely consistent, and designed specifically to handle long runs without any fade or the typical heat related issues that plague the Exige/Elise on the track. The car weighs just over 1500lbs and produces approx 300hp.  It is not only fast, but easy to drive fast.  It makes good drivers look great and great drivers look like heros.  To further improve lap consistency, the driver seat has been shifted to the center of the passenger cabin.  The vehicle has had no collision history, and retains the original body and factory paint.  The few body alterations have been professionally performed only to either displace heat or improve aerodynamics.

It features a freshly built K24 Honda 2.4 liter (drivetrain specifics below)powerplant, freshly built Gear Speed 5 speed gearbox with composite synchros, full aerodyamics, fully adjustable suspension (specifics below), single center mount seat conversion, and spares.  The cost to build this car would be well into the six figures. 

Drivetrain Specs:

Honda K24 long block (2005 Acura TSX)

Acura RSX Type S head with dual V-Tec Cams.

Full Race Cams.

Hybrid Racing Fuel Rail.

Port Matched.

Oversized Throttle Body.

Hondata ECM Software.

Full Race Stainless Exhaust (no catalytic converter or emission system)

Lightweight Flywheel.

Clutch is made for track use only and does hop when leaving a stop, but is made to handle the abuse of the track (only 30 or so hours on the clutch)

Gearspeed 5speed Gearbox. Specifically designed for this car with no expense spared. Composite synchros and straight cut gears.  Third gear is intentionally very long.  You will not have problems with this box, period.

Limited Slip Differential

Oversized Aluminum Radiator with dual top mount electric fans. 

Oversized oil cooler.

Custom high capacity highly heat resistant wiring harness.  You will not have electrical issues. 

All Engine mounts specifically made for this vehicle by Innovative Mounts.

There is much more to list...

Suspension/Braking:

Lotus Forged Cup Wheels

Fully Adjustable Nitron 46mm Race Pro Coilovers

Monoball Spherical bearings.

Sector 111 RTD2 Subframe Brace

Upgraded Teflon lined Tie Rod Ends.

Hex Shaft Custom Length Toe Links.

Camber Plates.

Nitron SS90 outer Toe Kit

All bushings and Joints upgraded.

Floating 2 Piece Brake Rotors.

Front AP Racing Calipers.

Stainless Steel Brake Lines.

Aerodynamics:

Oversized front splitter with front undertray (chassis mounted not body mounted for more downforce)

Adjustable Carbon Rear Wing with 2 sets of  Aluminum Perches (again, chassis mounted for better downforce).

5 element rear diffuser

Oversized Carbon Fiber Engine Intake Scoops.

Gurney Flaps

Custom Carbon Fiber Engine bay cover (no louvres for smoother over body airflow).

Lightweight roof comes with vehicle, but once installed cannot be removed or opened easily.

Difflow Undertray Aero Plates.

Interior, Electronics, Saftety and Driveability:

Center mount seat conversion. All parts are Autocad designed and forged aluminum. From the seat mounts, to the pedals, to the dash/steering column mounts, to the shifter, shifter box and shifter bushings.

Reverie Carbon Fiber seat. Can be adjusted, but is currently set up for a 5'-11" to 6'-1", 190-200lb driver.

IMRP Shifter Box with Hybrid Racing Short Throw Shifter and customer aluminum linkage (with spares for adjustments).

Sparco Steering wheel with removable steering hub.

Full Fire System.

Hondata Engine Management

AIM data logger.

Custom aluminum firewall (quick release for easy engine bay access).

FIA approved Fuel Cell.

Full Cockpit and engine bay cage.

All body and underbody fasteners are quick release (the rear bodywork and aerdynamics can be removed in under 10 minutes by two people).

Clear Body Protection (Clear Bra).

Much more to list.  This is the closest you will ever experience to a Lemans Prototype car at almost any price.  You could spend $150k or more to replicate a track car with this much speed, handling, consistency, safety.  All of the frustrating Lotus traits have been tuned out of this car without losing the soul of the car, yet performance has been brought up to a level that would make Sir Colin Chapman's head spin.

Lotus Exige V6 Cup takes extreme to the extreme

Mon, 14 Jul 2014

What separates a road car from a race car? You're looking at it. It's the Lotus Exige V6 Cup, a model based on what is already one of the most hardcore performance machines on the road, albeit upgraded to an even harder-core spec. It's a good 130 pounds lighter than the Exige S (a vehicle which didn't have much flab to trim in the first place) and can hit 60 in under four seconds. With the notably exception of certain versions of the Porsche 911, there aren't a lot of six-cylinder cars that can claim that kind of performance.
In fact, the Exige V6 Cup is so close to race spec that it's already eligible for a number of racing series. Just bolt in the removable FIA-certified roll cage, maybe swap on some slick tires and you're good to go. Then you can drive it home again when you're done, just like in sports car racing's heyday. But don't take our word for it: the team over at XCar took the V6 Cup to the UK's Goodwood circuit to see how it compared to the Exige S it recently drove, and you can view the stirring results in the video below.

Volvo-based, Chinese-built Lotus SUV allegedly due out in 2020

Thu, Oct 1 2020

Lotus will set foot in the lucrative SUV segment before the end of 2020, according to a recent report. It's preparing to unveil a high-riding model named Lambda that will be made in China with Swedish parts. Five-plus years in the making, the first Lotus-badged SUV will share its SPA platform with several members of the Volvo range, including the XC90, and with the plug-in hybrid Polestar 1. Citing unverified reports from China, Holland-based AutoWeek reported the Lambda will land in the same segment as the Porsche Cayenne Coupe and upmarket variants of the BMW X6. Patent images (pictured) suggest it will wear a fastback-like roof line. Using the flexible SPA platform will allow Lotus to offer a variety of powertrains, including gasoline-burning four-cylinder engines with forced induction and at least one plug-in hybrid option. SPA wasn't designed to accommodate six- or eight-cylinders, so leveraging electrification will likely be the easiest way for engineers to unlock more performance. An electric variant will reportedly join the range a little bit later in the 2020s. Production will begin in Wuhan, China, in late 2020, according to the same source. Whether the model will be sold in the United States is up in the air. It would make a significant amount of sense: Americans have an insatiable appetite for SUVs, and the company has often stressed it wants to increase its sales in our market. Lotus hasn't commented on the report, and it has remained quiet about its long-rumored SUV. We heard a lot about the model from Jean-Marc Gales, its former CEO; he notably said it will be to the Cayenne what the Evora is to the 911, and he pledged it would become the fastest and most agile model in its segment. He's gone, replaced by Phil Popham in 2018, so that strategy might have changed. If the rumor is accurate, we won't have to wait long to see how Lotus can apply its design language and its unique engineering philosophy to an SUV. Related Video:

Top Gear caught filming Best of British near Buckingham Palace

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

YouTuber and car-fan extraordinaire Shmee probably had very little trouble tracking down the Top Gear film crew recently, as the group was putting together an episode that could accurately be described as "excessive." With its flag-waving (literally) Best of British theme, the TG guys gathered a jaw-dropping array of British cars, and parked them all right in front of Buckingham Palace to make extra sure that the point was driven home.
Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May were outfitted with a trio of Jaguar F-Types festooned with gigantic Union Jacks, with which to survey the landscape of British motoring glory. In the video below, you'll see that this includes any number of Mini, Aston Martin, Lotus, McLaren, Land Rover, Bentley and Rolls-Royce models (just to name a few), as well as a healthy dose of weird stuff that most people would never guess at being built in the UK. The lawnmowers and military vehicles are especially cool.
