Oh those are some good questions.

How does size compare, I know these are supposed to be slightly larger cars then usual for lotus.

Also how is rear visibility?

Size wise they're pretty close, but I found the photo below interesting. Not sure what year 911 this but it appears considerably smaller (and sleeker) than the Evora.

Boxster: 170" L x 70" W x 51" H
Evora: 171" L x 73" W x 48" H




There is no rear visibility at all and two huge blind spots on either side. Has a camera, but the angle is pretty narrow. It's supposed to have rear sensors, but haven't figured out how that works yet.

Oh, Jake, why do you need rear visibility? To see where you were? You were just there!

No one driving a Porsche is allowed to ask about rear or side visibility. It's the rule.
