This Is The Angriest-Sounding Lotus Exige We've Ever Heard
The star of this conspicuously noisy video is a 500bhp Lotus Exige with a titanium exhaust

In all its many iterations, the Lotus Exige is a pretty serious car. This one, however, is on another level entirely.
It’s a time attack car upgraded with multiple new aero pieces, slick tyres, a Harrop supercharger giving a 500bhp output, and an Ajko titanium exhaust system. And those pipes leave quite an impression.
This is no ordinary Lotus Exige...
In the video at the top of the page, the Exige is making a fantastically angry noise as it belts around Franciacorta while competing in a round of the Time Attack Italia. We’d love to listen to it IRL, but get the feeling earplugs might be required…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Awesome, but still not as sick as this M5 S85 swapped Exige.
So you know how saleen tues mustangs and RUF tunes and sells Porsches? Well I want to do that with Lotus. Also my middle name (the one I go by irl and on here) and my last name would make it sound cool in front of lotus. Bu on a huge downside my last name is pronounce by many as colon/colean.It’s german but it’s not that hard to figure out
Not as angry as this Tesla I heard once.
It was like “……………………………” Deep breath “……………………….” Woooosh*
That escort sounded pretty tasty too tho
Kinda random question: do we still do comment of the week? I have either missed it or haven’t seen it in a while
crisis ensues
