I like it - but I can't get the word 'Honda' out of my mind.
My thought exactly! Looks a bit like the CR-Z and S2000 all rolled into one. Actually, all the new Lotus' look like the past 3 or so NSX concepts! I find it interesting that Lotus seems to be abandoning Chapman's philosophy in favor of more power and weight, whilst Lamborghini seem to be poised to "add lightness". Could they be swapping roles?! (Then again, the Lambos are sure to keep their stratospheric pricing.)
As for me, I like the original Elite and the '90s Elan, FWD, Isuzu engine and all! Always thought the '90s Elan looked like a baby Esprit, no bad thing.
