    Default Bad a** Lotus Elise

    Found this unique supercharged lotus today. As different as it is I actually really like it.

    Looks like a shop-made Lotus 2-Eleven

    its been sitting in that lot for a while now, I remember seeing these pictures from a good while back. "perryeyges" is the name of the guy on Lotus Talk that made it into that, believe he sold it back in 2008 or early 2009, not sure how long the next person had it before it ended up at that dealer.

    I don't really like it, can't pinpoint why but it definitely has to do with the look of it. Lot of respect to the builder though.
