Lotus plans new Elise and Espirit

British sports car maker Lotus actually makes more money consulting other companies and refining their models than selling their own cars! but good news is coming out of factory that we are going to see at least two new models, apart from Evora coupe and convertible, in the next few years. There will be a new version of the lovely Elise in 2011 and also the mighty Espirit will be revived for 2012.
According to the insiders, the new Elise will be a development of the current car
rather than a totally new model based on the Evora. And that’s good because Elise is known for its agile character and to mix it up with the heavier slower Evora can ruin its reputation. The new Espirit project however, that is still in a cloud of skepticism, because of the financial difficulties and fears that the market won’t embrace a mid-engine British sporty firm enough for Lotus to make some money out of it!

If however it makes it to the production you can expect it to launch after the Evora convertible. That’s 2012. Unlike the Elise , Espirit will share many parts with the Evora, But it will definitely use a V8 engine because it is a Espirit! Lotus has reportedly lowered its expectations for next year’s production, from 8000 to around 5000 units and also some of their contracts have been cancelled due to the credit crunch. What we can do is to keep our fingers crossed for the new cars to come to life!

Lotus & Ferrari



The Lotus Sport Exige. This is the racing version of the car, it looks very nice and fast, which it is. This car is often underplayed in games such as Need For Speed (not that I don't like NFS considering I have just about every one and I have a ND4SPD). I've noticed this on all the NFS games the Elise is on (I think about 3 or so) that it is always the bottom car; sure the other cars are alot better but I think the Elise needs some recognition, I mean it's no hunk of crap car it's a sweet car that deserves more than it's been given in the past (I mean they put old Dodge's like the Charger as being faster than it!).


Well back to the picture, this car is amazing; especially in this picture. If you like this car check out some more of Lotus's cars (The Esprit, Exige, Elise) they're also sweet rides.


I bet none of you have ever seen this car before!!!! This is a Ferrari Concept car. I think that Ferrari should make this car, it has a nice shape and the coolest headlights ever. I think it would be a great advance for Ferrari now. They used to be my favorite car company for a long time, but lately (The last year or so) they haven't come out with any good looking cars, their new cars look like crap, not worth the amount you pay for them. So now my favorite is probably Lamborghini or McLaren. Ferrari should bring back some good cars such as the F40, F50, Spider, Modena, and Enzo. They have however made one of my cars, probably the best Ferrari ever (about 1/?(Not Bad)): The FXX...

Later. N8.
