2013 lotus evora Reviews:
The Evora is staid and svelte, purposeful without being obnoxious; its proportions stubby and balanced like a .38 snubnose. Press the unlock button on the key fob, mysteriously unmarked in that quirky British minimalism that invites its own Lucas Electronics jokes. (Our car came with a two-page primer on how to use the car alarm, because some stereotypes are true for a reason.) Climb into the seat, and kink your hips to the right -- despite an all-new platform, the sills intrude halfway into the wheelwells in true Lotus tradition. It's OK, you'll get used to it -- I did.
Despite what we can only assume are miles of linkages, the shifter is as precise and mechanical as anything with a transmission tunnel; we only wish it was a bit tighter. The center console shakes when the driver puts the gear knob in reverse. The e-brake handle is untrustworthy. There is no rear visibility. The view out the back is as wide as the ruler with which Chapman's schoolmarms whacked him. Many of the panels feel loose; evidently, “add lightness” doesn't apply to fasteners and rivets.
Yes, I love this car. Yes, I forgive all of its sins. No, I have not considered the long-term ownership pains that may be lurking out there. Drive one and you will echo an actual 11-year-old passenger: “This is the best car ever! This is the best car ever! This is the best car ever!” and “When I'm old enough to drive, assuming they don't having flying jet cars, I'm going to get one of these!”
