GTR has giant killing pace. For a very heavy car it's relatively capable on the track (ie still rubbish).

Evora majors on feel, poise, balance and driver involvement.

The Evora S should have the best of both. Of course still not as rapid as the GTR but a genuine giant 'scarer' if not an outright killer.

I absolutely agree, an Elise R is plenty quick enough these days. But too much performance is always nice if you can get it.
I find it interesting that many people couple the GT-R and Evora in comparisons simply because of the similar price range. The truth is, they are so different and draw completely different buyers.

A buyer will either lean to one extreme or the other. I highly doubt there's a buyer out there that was ever really split between the two.

It's like saying, "Wow, that salad come in a close second over the steak!" I really don't see the point in comparing the two. To do so is just silly.

Well I for one happen to like both.

And would happily own either.

I have owned a Nissan GTR in the past and I have owned several Loti.

What are you basing your black and white distinction on?

I agree with him, they are too different to really compare. I hope Lotus bring out a 450bhp Roadster Evora. I'd buy one
