I had the opportunity to take one around an autocross course a couple of years ago. It's no Celica! The car I AXed was an 05 with the track-pack and Yokohama R-comp tires (A080??) It's as close to a go-cart as a street car can get. Very light feeling vehicle, Flat handling, super-quick turn-in, and it just would not break the tires (but I wasn't going 10/10 either) . For a while I was lusting after one, but then I put the K-sports and R-comps on my 986S...The Box doesn't have the 2000 lb feel, but the handling is close. I imagine the supercharged Exige is a beast.
