2013 Lotus Esprit

Ok these new lotus design..5 or 6 in all are very Me too. But I do have to say they are good looking Me toos
I do quite like the Esprit but do wish it looked a tad more like the old ones

I like all the concept as well. I can't decide which I like more, the Elan or Esprit.

I don't care what anyone says, the new Lotus concepts, especially the Esprit (this one), are sexy, sexy cars (that's two sexies!!!)!

It looks Lambo-ish. Not bad though. Will it be a 458 Italia fighter (minus the bursting into flames)?

I really liked these concepts with the espirit being my favorite. I like it because it reminds me of the S5S Raptor

I agree with MARZ, I think the new Esprit is a "it's about freakin time!" design. I loved the old Esprit and unlike many Lotus purists, I think the new Esprit is on track with this day in age of design. It could loose some weight but I think it's more on the level of contention with the lower Ferrari's and Lambos.
I think it's good moves by Lotus. I think people argue this as being an affordable sports car, but for whom?? When was Lotus an affordable sports car. Possibly the Elise, possibly.

Of course it looks Lambo:
