Lotus even tried to get s2000's K series engine for the elise, but had to settle with the inferior toyta model because honda's s2000 is a direct competitor.

Is this car like the ones i build in GT3 that have massive amounts of power, light as hell, and I spin out on every turn? Like that suzuki go cart looking thing? Ha ha, beautiful. This is one of my "if I won the lottery" cars.

littlerocket777, the car is prone to oversteer but its not too bad.. no crazy spin outs yet. You just have to be extra careful with this one, especially in the rain as there is no traction control of any sort and 60% of weight is in the back. I may add traction control and LSD as the power continues to grow in the upcoming months =P Here are the pics again, hopefully there wont be bandwitch problems this time. I have added some girl-car pictures for no particular reason lol

That was a rather unaducated statement

BTW that really wasnt "unaducated" statement, Lotus did approach honda in the early development stages of 111r/fed elise. I considered swapping out the 2zz in favor of K20A, but decided to go a much simpler route with forced induction. That said, supercharged K20A elise did well in the recent car and driver superfour shootout (2nd place after HKS evo). Engine bay pic of hondata/prototype racing elise:
