I don't want personal arguments. I don't mind discussing or even debating cars. That sort of thing really brings down a community and contributes to the 'rice' and immature image that this board is now portraying.

Alright. You win. The only good cars in this world are the Z06 and the S2000 you own.

I'd do the same thing. A forcedfed turbo can bring an elise to 275 horsepower. (there's 300+ versions as well) But you can really say that about any car. Porsches are overpriced for what they are as well, but people still buy em.
Porsches have great DD attributes and IMO are close enough to being worth their price(low volume requires high markups). A decently optioned 295hp 2800lb Cayman S is still ~$20k less than this Exige.

Ok, so that lotus is slow(not really, but ok). I think you need to upgrade it a little. Maybe FORCEDFED 380R package will help. 380 turbo ponies and 280 lb-ft of torque. How much does the Elise weight again? 
And you do NOT want to know how much it costs.
