Lotus Exige

I think the Exige (and its sibling, the roadster Elise) is the ideal realization of the light and nimble approach to making a racing car. At under 2000 lbs and with a 200hp engine and, they say, perfect handling, it can keep up with more powerful and more expensive cars. at about $50k, it's the bargain supercar. The car is already so look-at-me unusual, it'd seem a shame not to go for the orange or bright green, though I'd be tempted by a stealthy black or dark gray.
