when I see japans so mad about ESPRIT I understand better why M C B Chapman

call his cars "Lotus"

And I confirm I' m sure that when Chinese will discover LOTUS and the ESPRIT they will be so mad about this fabulus sport car that to find an Esprit to sale will be very very very difficult....

Very interesting sites, thanks

It's interesting trying to navigate those, text is a bit weird but pictures are good.

There's a lot to surf, what a way to spend my last workday before holidays

You actually got to navigate the sites! I havent got a clue about the whole deal Never in my life have I seen such a confusing website. Upside down questionmarks etc. Bizzare stuff!

Wayne just click everything and see what happens

This one looks pretty fast:

I'm not a real fan of what it looks like...

But engine looks FAST.

I hate everything about how that looks...

The engine is impressive though.

Er, even less practical than a normal Esprit - maybe you strap your overnight bag to the spoiler (kind of doubles as a roof rack)

I can't really get with the Japanese (eastern?) mentality of decorating everything with huge skirts and spoilers - makes it look like a sort of FTO/Impreza/Evo hybrid instead of a REAL sports car.

Stll, bet it goes like nothing on earth!

it's all about orientation. if you slant your eyes far enough, you'll be able to read it top to bottom, right to left.

Oh, I definitely hate the looks. The light cluster looks like it came right off a Chevy Camaro or a Geo Storm. [Crying voice] Why would you do that?!?!?!

Is it a track car?

If it genuinely is, then that would explain everything - ie why you would need to do away with the pop ups etc

If not....
