Title: Searching for the Holy Grail
Post by: andy harwood on Sunday,April 09, 2017, 08:19:28 PM

At the Bangkok Auto Show. Took awhile, but we found exactly one Lotus. 2013 Exige SC, 4,800,000 baht. Ouch. The Mazda MX was $87,000 US.

What's the rolling chassis from Andy ? It looks a similar concept the the modern Aluminium tub Elise & variants, but I'm assuming it's not Lotus ?

A McLaren eh ?  who's have thought they sub-contracted to Lotus ?   ;)

Looks like a great show all the same, the sort of cars that I only ever read about in mags.
