Mansory Evora

[JohnoVR6]

Just spotted this on twitter; Lotus are asking 'Is It Always Wise to CUSTOMISE?' (Their use of caps lock, not mine)

To which they've answered...'If you must, then do it with some style…'

So they've turned to Mansory:

Who: Lotus

What: The multi-award winning Lotus Evora as you’ve never seen it before.

Where: The Lotus stand, Geneva Motor Show, Hall 1, Stand 1031

When: 2.15pm, Tuesday 1st March 2011

Why: Because we can. And because we know you’re curious……

So you don’t want to wait until Geneva? No problem, click on the ‘undercover’ image above or go to the 'news' section of www.lotusnewera.com for a sneak preview.

Let’s be clear on this: contrary to media reports, what you’ll see in Geneva is NOT an Evora facelift. It’s a taste of the future of Lotus product customisation. Merely the first toe in the water and a showcase of the potential future.

Now I know there's a lot of Mansory bashing goes on on here...and in most cases, rightly so. But I don't actually think that looks that bad, quite reserved even. But other than a few sheets of carbon here and there, I can't spot anything drastically different from the boggo car, unless I am being blind?

It's just about tasteful, can't be from Mansory. If it was the body would be pink and all the carbon bits gold plated.

Stuff like the carbon weave direction being applied wholesale?

So inventive. Nothing like lasts years 'white with carbon' effort.

[davepoth]

Imagine an Evora like this.

I agree. It's the first thing I've ever seen from Mansory that I have liked.

I just thought it was impeccable attention to detail, getting the weave to line up through the skirt, mirror and roof
