>Lotus, who hasn't made a reliable car... ever?

The US-spec Elise/Exiges were powered by a fairly mundane Toyota engine. Body panel costs aside, it's a cheap, reliable, unpractical, and great vehicle.

Best description of a Lotus Elise ever. That car was designed purely and simply for driving enjoyment.


I've never doubted that the Toyota engine is reliable. If Lotus made a car with reliable electronics, that strikes me as revolutionary. :)
