AND Lotus raised the price $3K for all cars invoiced after Sept... in other words you'd put a deposit on a car for 39K and had to pay 42 if you still wanted it when it finally got delivered... 6-9 months late!

There's a lot more.


Hmmm...I might have to wander over and check out these gripes for myself. Thus far none of them seems overly surprising to me given the history of Lotus. That doesn't EXCUSE the gripes, but does put them into perspective...

LOL! Probably true but they console themselves with the fact that the trunk is the same *size* as our secret compartment.

So far nothing startling, but I'll keep perusing...

Interesting. I guess it's all about expectations. I'd be pissed off if the price got jacked too.
