Default I think I made a big mistake this weekend. . .

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/68728/exige.jpg"></center><p>Had too much free time on Saturday, so went to look at a Lotus Exige at my local dealer. OMFG! Took a used Elise out for a spirited drive, and I think I may be hooked.

Talk about a polar opposite to the S4 (other than acceleration). So light, so communicative, SO MUCH GRIP. Unreal.

I want one.

*note, pic is not of the car I looked at (that's a Euro Exige), but close enough*

Default NOT a mistake.......

It would compliment your Avant well.

Drove one last year, as I know someone that works for Lotus and it's a blast to drive !!!

Default ~$42k IIRC.

Tempting to go that route rather than $58k for a loaded Exige.
