Is lotus produce some new models in the future?? Like supercars (enzo beater) or something?? i heard about new esprit, but what is with a new elise? My dream in Lotus future is building own powerful engine (350hp and more) less weight. Cool styling, A ferrari beater. What do you think???

Lotus is working on aflexible architecture that will accomodate:

1. The replacement Elise: Super low wieght, kart style handling, etc

2. The Esprit replacement: Forced induction V8 or V6(depending on who you believe) mid-engined supercar.

3. A as yet to be disclosed front engined 2+2 type design

So probably by late 2006/early 2007 we should see some of the efforts materialize unless, of course, there are more backoffice shuffles vis-a-vis a sale from Proton to another outfit.

Whatever they are planning I think they need to get their fingers out.

I went to the Motorshow on Saturday and their stand was looking kinda.....dull? Nothing but the Elise and Exige.

Love Lotus, don't get wrong, but not even a mock up or sketch of ANYTHING else?

Still can't get on with the series 2 Exige either. Just not bold enough like the series 1 and what have they done to the seats? I had no problems getting comfy in my Elise but these seats just dug into my boney asss.

Just for your information TVR Typhon, LOL means "Laugh Out Loud". Hence your version means "Laugh Out Out Out Out.... Out Out Loud" which is gibberish. No problem, just thought you should know.

Or thanks to Google...
Gerades For Your Information TVR Typhon, LOL-Mittel "lachen aus Loud". Folglich lachen Ihre Versionsmittel "lachen aus aus aus aus...., aus aus Loud ", das Kauderwelsch ist. Kein Problem, gerader Gedanke, den Sie kennen sollten.
