Lotus spec quieries

Just about to take delivery of a Cup 240 Exige. Strange to see that if you buy a 38K exige with the full sport upgrade you get "forged wheels weighing 9.4Kgs less" but if you pay 48K for the full Cup 240 car you get the "standard" rims that you would have on a 30K Exige""
Worse than that the desire for black wheels for a black car is rebuffed with " they come with silver"
I love the cars, but FFS perhaps they should give a little more airtime to the sad gits like me who will blow the thick end of 50K on an Elise!!!
At least I have a great dealer who will facilitate my car arriving with black wheels. Not a great reward for customer loyalty!!!!!!!!!!!!

does seem a bit strange...but nothing new in Lotus spec world

Black wheels at no extra cost. Nice dealer "stealing" them from the Exige in his showroom.

Not about wheels, but dealer swapped leather door trims from one (new) 111R into mine (new, fitted with suede trims, not to mu liking) without any problem. Guess they were kind of desperate for the sale, pleased none the less
