Lotus Exige
If you are nostalgic for British sports cars of the 60s, remind yourself that there are two of them still available in Canada: the Lotus Elise and Exige. They are two pure bred ultra light sports coupes designed around a platform and engines supplied by Toyota. The Elise and Exige are uncomfortable and passengers are not welcome.The various four-cylinder engines offered produce horsepower varying between 189 and 257. Handling is divine !
