I was on I-78 in NJ and this passed me... it was going, shall we say, faster than I was willing to go, which was pretty fast, and I didn’t get a good look at it.

Looked almost like an early 80s Supra, but larger and with somewhat different lines.

Looks kinda like an early to mid Lotus Esprit that’s gotten fat?

They have to go fast at all times so they can cover as much distance as possible and coast for awhile when they break.

Looks to be the one before the twin turbo - the S4 model.

I have a Lotus and one time a kid asked me if it was a Lambo. I feel like I experienced this joke in real life.

Same thing happened to a coworker with an Exige. He does have a Lake Forest Lamborghini license plate bracket, but it’s still inexcusable.

Joke’s on me, it’s actually shorter than the Supra: 165 vs. 183 inches.
