Lotus Exige S: wannabe racer's delight
The Exige is the kind of car that always exposes a driver's shortcomings through a corner and never quite allows them to claw back self-respect on a straight, because if you don't carry enough speed in an Exige, it hasn't got the power to make up the ego shortfall.
The 'S' adds a supercharger, several more horsepower and a heap more fun. The equation works like this: if focus is sexy, the pseudo-racing aspect of the Exige is very sexy indeed. It intimates that you are so committed to the racing line, you are willing to forgo daily space, comfort and lower back mobility to achieve it.
