Wasn't the Dodge EV based off this car?

That's the Europa, not Evora.

Elise for sure.

Europa is ugly. Also Elise has a lot more aftermarket support

Its quick and nimble because its light.
After about a half dozen times in it, its annoying. Its noisy, cramped, loud, and feels like a toy.
Its also really annoying in the rain as the raindrops sound much louder than other cars.
Don't get it unless its going to be your weekend car.

Yeah it'd be my weekend car. I'm leaning towards the Elise anyway.
The Evora's selling point is it's practicality as a Lotus.
..But who gets a Lotus for the practicality?

I also like the whole Elise look more than the Evora. The Evora looks like a cat. And the flat hood makes it look more plain. If I'm gonna get a Lotus, I'm gonna go for the wasp look that the Elise/Exige are known for.

Evora is nice, powered by Toyota's minivan engine.

2+2 is a good bonus too

The back seats are as useless as a 911's or a Prelude's.. You'll fit if you're under 10 years old.

True that I guess. Emergency situations. I hated cramming people into the back even of my old Integra. I sold it and bought a Z
