it's Chinese, you press the "break" pedal, the wheels fall off and it skids to a halt on its belly,once the speed has bled off the doors automatically fall of below 10mph allowing easy exit.

So is this a Chinese Lotus or just one of their knock off copies that kinda stretch the IP rights.

yep, sons of the founder iirc. the company has folded with very very few cars produced. as said there's a green 2011 rs 2000 gts and a black 2012 gtr for sale in dubai. i like the concept [carbon exige with VAG power] and the build quality is tip top but the gullwing doors are hideous.
