0-100 in 17 seconds... that's pretty slow for a car as agressive looking as that

yeah that does seem a little slow but you could always mod it that is if you can afford the car and still be able to buy mods

Thats cool looking, I will probably never even see one in person. Remember.. James Bond drove a Lotus.

also for 38,000 I'd expect a little more than that... i don't think putting that ***** engine in there is a very good idea

i think the renesis would work nicely, a car that light doesn't need much torque

actually if u look at the 0-60 its seems pretty quick. anyways that car is more known for its handling and superb braking. so yeah its sounds slow but its really not a slow car because the lotus elise sport has 190 bhp does 0-60 in under 5 sec and is considered a race car from factory all that for under 45k dollars. check this out

How can it go 0-62 in 5.7 seconds and the next 38 mph take 11.5 seconds? That seems a lil odd to me.
