Lotus, RX-8, and 350Z
Well the time has finally come. My brothers Lotus Elise just came in the other day. So in our driveway we now have a Magnetic Blue Lotus Elise, a Sunlight Silver RX-8 (mine), a Black Nissan 350Z, and a Black Cadillac Escalade. :D I have never been happier. You have got to see the size comparison between the RX-8 and the Lotus if you have not seen it already. They don't look real small when you are up close but from about 30 feet away you can really see the difference. I will post some pictures as soon as possable.

I think the lotus is ugly as hell, but I wouldn't mind owning one 
The RX-8 is a strange creature. It looks nice on it's own, but when you put it next to a viper, or any other exotic, it no longer looks as low and sporty.

Those are great pics! I would really like to see more interior pics on the Lotus. Looks like there is just what you need...and absolutely nothing else on the interior. I love the exterior...have to see if the interior grows on me.

Hmmm ... the lotus is interesting ... VERY curvy. Almost reminds me of a Corvette. I love the color on that lotus ... wish the rx8 came in that.
I agree about the interior ... very minimal, kinda like a race car.

I actually was the first one to drive it. It was delievered to our house while my brother was out camping or hiking or something. So i took advantage of that. It is by far one of the best looking cars i have seen in a long time and it sounds sooooooo nice. if anyone is ever near Athens Georgia (Home of the Dawgs) then my brother or i will be more then happy to show it off. As far as what is next for the family... I think it will be a 2005 BMW M3. My brother is going to graduate medschool soon so i think that will be his graduation present. Not that he wont be able to afford it himself in a couple of years.
