Exotic Looks, Exotic Performance, Un-exotic PriceThe 2011 Lotus EvorasharetweetshareA several months ago I joined several journalists and pro driving instructors behind the wheels of countless high-zoot sports cars at Laguna Seca racetrack, and on the 18 Mile Drive in Carmel, California. One stood out clearly from your rest - the Lotus Evora. Let's take a peek.Young among you could know Lotus only over the Elise - a purpose-built track car that gives very exciting in small doses, and you wouldn't want to call home with one every single day. The Elise embodies Colin Chapman's twin virtues of simplicity and lightness, nevertheless these will not a cozy car make. Modern niceties like sound insulation, suspension and space for storage are actually sacrificed for the altar of performance. The Evora, on the other hand, is really a car meant to accept.Where the Elise requires inelegant contortions to enter and exit, the Evora offers generous portals and slender sills. Once inside, dignity and spinal disks intact, words like spacious, comfortable, and in some cases luxurious come to mind. The upscale surroundings command an expense in added weight rolex seamaster , though in a tad over 3000 pounds, rolex accessories sufficient lightness has been added to keep your fun meter pegged.Externally, the Evora may be termed as a small "e" exotic. The structure is a bit more Ferrari or Lamborghini than Porsche, so others will point, along with the valet will put you at the start. Yet inside a an entire world of over-the-top hypercars, the overall aesthetic is understated. Size-wise, the Evora is petite. At 170.9 inches, it's 4.3 inches shorter over a 911, eventhough it rides over a wheelbase that's 9 inches longer. Despite the fact that it appears like a two-seater, there's two rear seats ideal for transporting small items and people below five feet tall, according to Lotus.Mechanically the Evora combines the ground breaking using the mundane. The bonded and riveted aluminum monocoque chassis weighs just 440 pounds and provides torsional stiffness exceeding that of the Ferrari F430. The transverse mid-engine layout includes a reprogrammed 3.5-liter, 276-hp V6 sourced from Toyota - the same engine located in the Camry. In case your Italian-exotic-owning buddies show disrespect, offer them a ride thus to their dealership when their car is in for work so that you can be there once they find the bill for his or her 15,000 mile service. Now whose laughing?Lotus estimates the 0-60-mph run for a very un-Camrylike 4.9 seconds. Zero to 100 takes 11.8 seconds en route to a 162 mph top speed. If you require additional alacrity, we have a new supercharged "S" model provided with 345 hp and a 0-60 duration of 4.3 seconds. 100 appears in 10.4 seconds using a top speed of 172.Then obviously there is a handling. Our track day included Porsches, AMG Mercedes, watches a Corvette, a Mercedes SLS, a BMW Z4 sDrive3.5is, plus a few big-buck tuner specials. The consensus best handling car? Hint: you're reading about it. In the review, Dan Neil dubbed the Evora "handling perfection." 'Nuff said.The Skip Barber school of motoring at Laguna Seca uses the Evora. The purchase price will be the cherry for the cake.
