does the elise and the exige use the same chassi etc?

do you know if you can buy rolling shells from lotus or various companies? without drive line etc?

[elise]

Yes they are the same chassis although the new toyota engined car use a different rear subframe. You can't a new rolloing chassis.

Exige is so awesome. I saw an Exige-S at Eastgardens carpark, parked right next to a stray shopping trolley (SHOPPING TROLLEY DEATH YO!).

Funny thing is, I saw the same car, and a white and another Exige-S on the way to Wakefield last week. Thursday. Stopped off at Pheasants Nest and said G'Day, saw you at Eastgardens lol. Turns out they were dealer cars (Exige-S not on sale yet apparently). They gave me a quick run down on the differences of the new model and we were on our way, to my dissapointment they were only there to check out the track, and not actually drive the cars on the track. I was hoping for a ride see...

LOL!

I love these cars and am thinking about selling my MX-5, and my soul, to buy an older one.

I think they're a menacing looking car in photos (Exige!) but in real life they're so damn small that you can't quite call it a supercar, in some ways I wish it was bigger, but hey, it's in a class of it's own, that's for sure.

Here's a vid of me in the MX-5 playing around with Mark who was in the Lotus Cup car that day:
