I am glad they built that car for performance, because it looks like an insect !

Bavarian, let me know if you are out in suffolk or anywhere on the island.. I would love to check it out. My brother and I almost bought a pair of exige s's but just decided not to. BUT we never got the chance to get in one. If you do have the time let me know, I'll be there.
Thanks
J

Hey guys,


The Exige is the car that comes with the wing and the front splitter and also an engine cover. It is necessary and beneficial because it is a track oriented car.


The Elise comes like this...no wing.

That looks great!



To make it exactly like an Exige, you'd need the fastback engine cover and the wing would be mounted to that instead of the rear, but that looks pretty good!!!!




I want to get black wheels
