Exige S - Topless!
Discussion
Seriously thinking of getting an S (March next year), but after a great day today (over 200 miles with the hood off), I know I would miss the topless action. Can anyone confirm how easy it is to do hood off with the Exige, any downsides (does it have an adverse effect on the supercharger cooling on the S), and any other points of interest? TIA
The effects are....
It will effect the cooling of the air charge, hotter air means less power, but normal road use loosing 20hp might not be an issue to you.
Without the roof the rear wing doesn't really do anything so you'll loose rear down force, on the road though not a big issue.
It's the same roof mounting system as an Elise hardtop so easy and you can get the bits to fit an elise softtop without any problems.
Lotus will not honor the warranty in terms of leaks once you take the roof off
Nothing else to say really...
