Justin182 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Thanks Brian, glad you are liking it. How are you finding the power then? Is it fast enough? Its hard to tell after a short test drive.. I doubt the pedals can be more offset than the TVR's so I should be ok I hope. Not sure when my date will be but I'll hopefully hear from Graeme when he gets back from his holiday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bingoking Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Justin, I am happy with the power output for the road but we always want a little more power don't we. How it compares to a TVR or Gallardo I can't say but I think it will be stonking when the Supercharged version comes along. Is it fast enough; yes for the road but I still think that the Elise SC is faster through the gears to 100mph (on an airfield of course) but would loose out in top speed. I had the Elise flat out at an indicated 145mph on the Autobahn and on the long straight at the Nordschleife last year and will be driving the Evora to Switzerland this year so will check it's top speed on the Autobahn.

Yeah I know what you mean.. Problem for me with the TVR was the handling wasn't good enough for the power, and the Gallardo was just too powerful to enjoy. Still loved it though! I'm hoping to go to Lotus at the Ring this year, so looking forward to some Autobahn action again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-mayer Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Hello @ all, my Evora (canyon red) arrived today.... sounds good, feels good, smells good and is pure fun driving it! In the next days I will take pictures myself and post one or two here aswell. For the moment here´s a picture my dealer (Stephan Carstens, Exklusive Kollektion, Dresden) took just before delivery to me. Greetings from Germany, Alexander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex-mayer Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Hello @ all, I tried to post another two pictures I took of my new canyon red Evora some days ago. But I only have 1000k of space here of which I already spent 901k with the first picture I posted. Is there a way to post the two pictures without deleting the first one? Please do help.

bingoking Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Looking good I really like the monochrome background in the 2nd shot with the car being the only colour.

DigSquid Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 A couple of pics taken by a friend as we were leaving work the other day. He's done a lot of auto photography, these came out pretty well I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USAndretti42 Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 If he's the expert in auto photography, who took those excellent pictures? Or does auto photography mean taking pictures of oneself? These pictures just show how the Evora looks like a true exotic while the Cayman looks pretty ordinary.
