    Re: New Esprit gets green light

    It reminds me of something but I'm not sure what.  The front end is very round looking so I guess it's an interesting concept.  Will it be as iconic as the first though?  I'm liking it so far though.

     I wish Lotus secures that fabulous Toyota V10 from LF-A for the next Esprit.

    Re: New Esprit gets green light

    Those Esprit pics have been around since 2007 so I'd guess the final car will be very different.
