I just goes where you point it and really flies. He said the the next model up is absolutly sick...something like 300 hp? But this one at about $38,000 it's not too bad when it looks like $138,000 going down the road. God I want his job!

I couldn't tell from the pic, it lookd like something was covering them. . .I love the simple design, in AND out. . . The hood vents don't need to be functional, the engine is in the back Unlike the MR2, there appears to be plenty of venting on the rear engine cover and rear valance, so that aftermarket air scoops will not be necessary. 1999 Blk/Tan CSVT #654 - SOLD 2003 Suzuki SV650s

He means this: Lotus Exige S2 Same HP, but less weight. And IIRC, those hood vents are functional. Everything on that car is funtional. Totally built for the track. Check out the difusers under the rear valence. Definitely an affordable exotic. Almost all of the first run in the US is already spoken for.
