you know, I can understand this if I had a honda or something, but it IS a lotus. I'm pretty sure it at least qualifies as "fast" :P

i know. I guess everyone has their priorities. Mine would be the go fast route. then work on everything else.

Not really...lol I've been in more Hondas that would rape an Elise than a fast Elise. Stock they're painfully slow.

Supercharger, the way a car looks is meaningless.

lol, this is the only place I've ever been where 0-60 in 4.9 seconds on a stock car is considered slow...

and exactly how many of those hondas were stock?

I want to be clear, I was leaning towards the supercharger.

That said, the more people call the car slow, the more I want to get the paint to be a dick

should I also mention that my past cars have been features in movies, and that my lotus will almost certainly also be (my wife's is..).. so looks DO matter at least a little bit

4.9 here is nothing spectacular...

now go to a kia forum. You for sure win that one

guys, my past cars have been corvettes, evos, etc... (hell, again, my wife has an exige s.. that thing is crazy fast - and no it is not stock)

I am not saying the lotus is a supercar or anything - I am saying you guys are being unreasonable in not considering it to be a fast car. The lotus is roughly as quick 0-60 as my C5 Corvette was. I generally recall them being considered "fast"

meh......fast/quick/uber fast/ to each his own!!


the fact that the wife called it "fast enough" is enough reason to SC!!!!


is ya wifes pink one faster than yours??

put the blower on it, is the kit a centrifuegal or screw type charger, not familiar with the kit.

centrifugal superchargers are dumb
