Oh my god is that a fantastic car. The interior is lovely (for a Lotus, don’t expect leather everywhere). The clutch is light, but grabby and easy to modulate. The shifter is absolutely perfect and incredibly precise, with very short throws. The SOUND is fabulous, with just the right amount of supercharger whine at the right times. It’s the perfect weekend car.

Of course, like any Lotus, it handles and brakes great as well.

The only thing I’m not quite sold on is the front bumper.

Some other interesting Loti were there too

This most definitely didn’t get taken out on the street. At all.

This was a customer’s 340R that the dealer had just restored.

And what is this? This belonged to the owner of the dealer.

Bye!

Was this the one Matt Farah drove in his one take from Galpin?

I had no idea that the 340R even existed.

Everything I’m hearing about this car is good news. I’m going to have to start saving my pennies...

I’m honestly not sure. It looks the same, but sure as hell isn’t from Galpin

Saw this race at Mid-Ohio a few years ago, easily the best sounding car in the field

I wish the current gen Exige was street legal here. They are truly gorgeous.
