The #192 is a proper MK1 Exige - pretty rare things compared to the MK2, especially in Oz I'd imagine. They're ALL gorgeous, though. I love Elises, and especially Exiges - proper little mini-Le Mans racers for the road.

#240 looks great too, open Elise with a hardtop.

Agreed, really like the modified front splitter. Not sure what a certain Mr Chapman would have to say about that enormous rear wing though! The MK2s look like angry wasps, I think. And they look nicer with the twin headlights than the single units they've just stuck on the base Elise, and surely the Exige in due course. The new one is pretty, yes, but not mean like these. I bet this little lot have been of huge annoyance to timid GT3 drivers all over Australia.

I'm not sold on the new look. Now the Elise looks like a Tesla.
