2004 Car Show on Speed Channel last night...

in Birmingham, England showed TVRs, lotus and others. The British guy who I guess was was the editor for Car and Driver in U.K. said that the new Lotus w/ 1.6 liter 16 valve -240 hp ?? would be a hard to beat driver in the states for $50k.
I was speechless. What an uninformed ASS!
Someone like that shouldn't have that job but apparently he does. Just goes to show that bias reins everywhere.

Yeah.. That engine isn't EPA approved for the US. That's why we get a different engine for the stateside Lotus.
