Oh boy 14.1 power to weight ratio...yipee!
Was hoping for 230hp turbocharged, 28 MPG highway.

You can do that, just like the Elise, but you still have to drive it right to win. :)Quote:

I'll keep that in mind when I run into your HS Mini at ECR next time ;) Don't hit me.Quote:

Won't be a Godzilla, it will be about 8 seconds a lap faster than Godzilla and completely analog.Quote:

They said it will be a choice of engines: 1.5L or 2.0L and the soft top will be available in the US in September of 2015, hard top in December 2015.
It's a beautiful car in person! Love it, but since it was on the rotating platform, nobody could sit in it for pictures.
I put pics up on my FB page... Security settings limit it to friends though.
You can change your security settings for each picture to make them public, you know.
Or even better, post them here!
^this
I'll post some here after I get to Barcelona. I have a conference call with a customer in less than 20 minutes then have to run to CDG to catch my flight.
Pics... All low res. I have 16MP versions on my PC though.
Thanks! Amazing how much the front looks like Jaguar.
What is that bright aluminum "C" clamp looking part at the base of the front spring? Does the sway bar attach to that? Pic M7
It looks like that is the stand supporting the chassis (pic M9)Quote:
