I like the car, but it does borrow to much from other marques as per the aforementioned Lambo and R8 but sadly, takes far too little from its own heritage.

I would prefer a slightly updated version of the squared Lotus Esprit so these cars share some DNA apart from the badge. Absolutely fantastic if the Esprit is coming back at any rate!

Who cares it looks hot! Most supercars out there are becoming very similar in their design and are selling in droves, so why shouldnt Lotus get some of that action.

I have to say, the glasshouse looks extremely close to a Lamborghini Gallardo’s and the overall shape is a departure from the current Lotus gang… Again, not such a bad thing, just as long as they stick to their much-acclaimed formula

This is an old photoshop, that was based on the Gallardo and is nothing to do with the car that lotus has in mind.

Looks like the new McLaren in my opinion.

Looks the business.

Perfect timing to dust off Richard Gere & Julia Roberts for Pretty Woman 2.

Is this the reason why Channel 7 has been recently playing old James bond movies with Lotus Esprit cars in them?…

Looks very Lambo/Audi R8 from the front and side! Not a bad thing by any means
