I admit that it’s been two years since I looked seriously at a new Lotus. Then, I could have picked up a brand new (but 2013) Evora 2+2 for just under $60k. Now they want $100k and up, which could get you an F-Type R if you strike a good deal. Amazing.

Dude those are the Evora 400.

If I had 100k to blow and my choice was an F-type or an Evora 400 I’d take the Evora.

They retailed at $75ish for the base, and the S was about $90. The 400 is essentially an updated S so the pricing is in line with that. Still not the worst deal in the car world.

Well, I obviously don’t know Lotus very well!

That green Evora is gorgeous, but I think I’d still have the F-Type for less, and It would look better.

Ehhhh. Nothing worth memorizing I just remembered all the intro stuff about the 400 last fall.

I’ll keep my current Jag, but thanks for taunting me with that!
