Lotus
-Can you say UNIQUE??
-Pimp Factor: 10/10
-Insurance might be MEGA MEGA high?
-An accident is going to cost you an arm and leg. Parts must be so scarce.
G35
-More of a public car
-Less attention which could be good sometimes
-cheaper insurance for sure
-Everybody is getting one
-Less gas efficient? (Didn't read all the specs of the Lotus)
-Come on, Infinity vs. Lotus?
I'd take the Lotus if I could afford insurance and not care about accidents.

Rep Power: 0 um k20 + turbo is NOT a lotus killer.
the 2zz engine is a nice setup to start with especially retuned. I'd say go with the lotus. You'll have a really nice lookin car right out the box and you will be hard pressed to find another one driving around.
Not to mention the awesome performance on both the road courses and 1/4 mile. Good luck what every you choose. Oh yeah and the turbos made for the gt-s are rumored to fit in the lotus
could have a 260 whp 2000 lbs car

Rep Power: 351 I thought you were talking bout the new Elise, not the Esprit. The new Elise is gonna have the Celica VVT-i engine with 180hp but becuase its so light and the better use of power, its gonna haul ***. But as far as the G35, it better be the coupe cuz thats hella clean. Just need 1.2" drop and 19z offset and your beating chix off ur car with a bat.

Rep Power: 368 dude guys telling him to swap...
he has that kind of money, why would he drive a civic.. or any honda for that matter.
that's just silly.
they're two diff. car really.. the lotus (which one anyway) usually aren't daily cars.. no trunk.. backseat (on one of them?)
eh. I'm biased towards the G35..
but by the time u wait for the 04 or 05 lotus to come out... u might have a change of heart.
