So in other words, your name is Jalopnik and your friends name is Oppo.

It's a damn fine motor, but I prefer the Lotus!

Very true. The 'bird *is* the word.

Not sure which I'd prefer in that situation...hmm. The Bird is cool, and plush (in the sense that it's incredibly softly sprung), has steering that requires no effort, and a genuine amount of character. The Lotus has character...of a different sort.

My friend, being 6 feet 2 and rather large, could not even get in the Lotus. The choice is already made for some people...

Honestly two amazing cars, wish I could show up to something and have someone met me in an exotic! Though driving a Gran Torino in my area is having an exotic cause literally no one has on in a 100 mile radius

Agreed, I was in a Lotus once, I am 5'9" on a good day and I felt that I barely fit inside.

Not trying to make a pun, but that must be rare Bird in Europe.

I was just saying how much I want one of those the other day, albeit in 'track weapon' spec.

The Evora's brilliant as well. Love those things.

Both glorious in their own way. The T-Bird is to totally original - even down to the washer fluid bladder
