One of the coolest cars I've seen!

Posted on YouTube a couple days ago:
"This Lotus makes 680 wheel horsepower with a twin-charged 1.8L engine; giving it a better power-to-weight ratio than Mario Andretti's Formula One Lotus."

That thing is ridiculous. Saw it on drive yesterday. I'd love to see him open it up and get on it.

Just read the entire thread. Thanks. I still look forward to checking your car at some sort of N.Cal cars&coffee or something! Ronin's locations says LA I thought his shop was in Lancaster, CA?

I see this guy every weekend on mulholland. I will save any comments about the owner but the car is badass!

Thanks! I don't know how I missed reading that thread... but I enjoyed reading it now.

WHAT a BEAST this monster four banger Lotus is!

Maybe there's hope for the human race after all.

That Lotus + Advevo + Nurburgring would be fun to see.

To paraphrase Patton Oswalt's comments on Disneyland, this is the type of awesome thing that happens when you give people with OCD an unlimited amount of money for a project.

If it's so damn fast how did he get hit from behind? Something doesn't add up!

KingOfJericho · 04-18-2012, 09:23 AM

He sounds very mature...

ptack · 04-18-2012, 09:31 AM

I ran out of gas. I, I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT I SWEAR TO GOOOD!

Were talking about car crashes, not being held at gunpoint by your ex in a tunnel saying why you left her at the altar.
