2012 Lotus Elise Club Racer
One of my favorite cars, the Lotus Elise, will be exhibited next month at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, in its updated Club Racer variant. The new one is even lighter than before as the British engineers managed to shave off 24 kg. The Elise Club Racer will be the first Lotus to come with a Sport setting for the Dynamic Performance Management (DPM).

In addition, the updated model will also pack a re-tuned suspension that features Eibach springs and Bilstein dampers as well as an adjustable anti-roll bar. The car will have the same engine as before, a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter that develops 140 hp (142 PS / 104 kW) @ 6,800 rpm and 122 lb.-ft (165 Nm) @ 4,500 rpm.
The base price for this baby will be 34,450 Euros and should be available pretty soon.
