Gone for a newer model, a 2007 Elise R which has undergone bit of trickery already, 200BHP, 0-60mph sub 5 sec and onto 150mph and weighs in at 860kg. Pick it up this Saturday (hopefully). The missus hates them, won't go near them, which is a bonus as she can't drone on about my driving style! |

Nice one - after all the electronic safety aids on the m3 - it must be such a test of nerve and skill...
the closest i've got to experiencing it is on the test drive track on gt5...i know it's not the same but the game demonstrates the difference between both cars quite well - i think.....

Had the wheels powder coated matt black, replaced the rear diffuser in matt black, added the front splitter. Had the ecu remapped for the lower cam change, already had a sports exhaust & induction kit fitted. It also had the improved clutch cable replaced. That’s all I plan on doing for now unless I get it supercharged in the summer. |

The Exige S is a supercharged version, which is great and I have driven one but all the extra horses are at the top of the rev range. A good second Exige S will set you back between £20k to £25k. I can supercharge mine for less than £3.5k which puts mine in the same league. Then of course you have the 240 cup etc and the honda converted cars, which are seriously quick but only really good for track days. Mine is a good compromise between the two, great as a daily driver (in the summer), works well on track, didn't break the bank plus I can take the roof off |
