So as to show it to a wider audience, here's some modified beauty from the Lotus section in PH - a twin charged 1.8L Toyota engine from a Lotus Exige, from memory running a reliable 650+hp. I think this Exige was posted in the thread a fair while ago and it has now been rebodied with modified 2-11 bodywork.

The 4 wheels, two seats and scrap of bodywork (that may be selling the car very considerably short biggrin ) that envelopes the monster engine posted above.

So that's what the LotusTroll Porschehater did next?

I know what you're all thinking; yes, that is a genuine 250 GTE body.

Wrong thread, that hood scoop is terrible and why the cage?

Adding to 'decent bodykits' has to be the CRX Mugen kit...

Tyres et al would suggest it's a drag car.

Because it's an awful dragster conversion of a beautiful car.

It's just the body, right?

The engine was a V12 in a 250? (My knowledge of old tallys is sadly lacking).

I know it looks like that for a reason but it's not nice. It's like a Hot Wheels toy where the body hinges up from the rear.

(just my opinion obviously)
