Lotus exige is a proper sports car.

but needs 80 more whp.

if s2000 had an inline 6 with twin turbo in it, with 6 piston brembos up front and 4 piston brembos rear, with 2 piece floating rotors, it would just be about the perfect car out there for me.

that and no holes in the front bumper where the honda emblem goes.

hehehe.

That is why if I were going to spend 50-60+ on a car I would by the Exige S. Now that car is sick!
Minimalistic and handles like no other.


Absolutely. I was thinking this when the first mention of a proper sports car was mentioned on this thread.

Sports cars don't ask what does the driver need. Sports cars ask what can the driver do without!!
If the S could drop 300-400 lbs, I think it would be a proper sports car. Until then, I think it's pretty close.

That would be totally the wrong direction for the S, for me.

As per jfw432, add NOTHING, but subtract 300-400 lb., please!
