New Lotus Elite
- Thread starter Chives
- Start date
Must admit it's not my favourite looking of the stuff in the studio at the moment but you can't argue with the ambition of the guys at the top. Really looking forward to Paris, even just to find out exactly which cars are being shown there.

I think the front and especially the back, look like an aggressive stretched porsche look.
It certainly not a pretty car. It just doesn't flow. Looks like it is 3 cars spliced together. front, side and rear.
Now that is what you good looking car (see 6 series thread).
Of course it flows, just follow the lines! Doubt the final product will be as aggressive.

Just because the lines physically match up, does not mean it flows. Just look at it. The side looks like it's from a super sports car, the front from some sort of GT and the back, well the back should just be set on fire and forgotten about.
The side view is the only good view of the car.
You can if that ambition closes the place down as they lose focus on the only stuff that sells. The Evora is hardly catching the order books on fire and at £100k I can't see many of these shifting through the factory doors.
It all looks purposeful though, you're saying that the front and the rear are not good in their own right? You say the front looks like a GT, well the car is a GT...
If you think this is bad, I'd be interested in hearing your views on the new 6 series in the other thread.
I'm saying it looks like 3 cars joined together. They do not follow the same design and hence looks rubbish.
