You’re right it started off as a Rover I-4 now it’s a Toyota V-6. the one I drove had a BMW s52 I-6 but I guess that isn’t standard. I haven’t looked at them closely in a loong time. Seems like the new Elmira you can get as a turbo I-4 or a supercharged V-6, very cool. If you ever get the chance to drive one, definitely take it.
True, Gen 1 had the Rover i4 and Gen2 the Toyota 1ZZ aswell as the Elise.
Then the Toyota V6, that was the one i drove in the Cup 380 configuration. Even better on the Nordschleife, that thing was at home there.
I wrote my Top 5 drives before and the Exige is in there, such a visceral, emotional and aural (is that spelled right?) Experience and its a torpedo.
The Emira sadly got the rather mundane AMG i4, i personally think it has too little emotion for the Lotus Badge, too much Business, too little play.
The Emira V6 go for 110k here in europe, thats too much for what it is on the other hand.
Its a Toyota V6, isnt it? Supercharged camry engine.
