Does anyone know how many 2010 Cup 260's hve been made?

Cant be many? Ive only ever noticed maybe 4 forsale on PH.
4 advertised for sale but if somebody ordered one to thier own spec it wouldn't appear as "for sale".

Lotus is screwed. In one quick easy step they're distancing themselves from their loyal fanbase and moving into a completely new market.

Why not a gradual transition, to announce such a fundamental change in the product lineup 3 years before they hit the dealerships, it is going to kill all new car sales

Sorry,

I've been told no to any 2ZZ Toyota engine car period

So have I. I've also been told you can still order them. Go figure.
That's odd, I've just been told that you can order RB Elise\Exige only?

Boggy the point of the Evora is to have something great to drive while waiting for the new cars to be made, if any of them make it into production.

No new Cup 260's in the dealers as far as I know.

They have been saying for some-time that the RGB edition was the runout model for the 1.8 engine. In the absence of any new engine news from Paris I doubt you will get anything other than Becker editions from the factory so you will need to look for dealer stock if you want anything different. The 2zz can't be sold new after the end of the year so any cars need to be registered as 2010 so they will be keen to sell them before they are pre- registered.

You never know, I don't believe and neither should you,

Do you all honesty believe that all Lotus are going to produce for the next 3 years is the Evora and a 1.6 Elise, no chance

Does anybody know the answer to this question? It seems to have been asked various times without reply

Absolutely the best resource for CUP260s is found here... numbers built, for sale, current owners, etc.
