Lotus Exige Review Summary
"Unlike other supercars, the Lotus Exige isn't powered by a massive fire-breathing V8, V10 or V12. A high-revving four-cylinder engine is all that's needed to provide extraordinary performance. This is because of the vehicle's lightweight construction"
"The steering is so light and precise ? not nervous, not delicate, not too fast or intimidating ? that you may find yourself doing little back-and-forth swerves on a highway straight just to feel the Exige dance."
"The raspy engine and exhaust sound is just as pleasing as feedback from the steering wheel and the sharp, precise six-speed manual transmission"
"The way the Exige turns into corners seems shockingly brisk for the first few miles, but then you learn to appreciate how its precision can almost laser-guide you to an apex, how its immediacy can teach you to be a more conscientious helmsman."
What reviewers liked least about the Lotus Exige:
"The ride is harsh, getting in and out is difficult and outward visibility is extremely poor."

Best one-liners about the Lotus Exige:
"It's like a hummingbird on four wheels."
