I gave it cool because it's cool for track days and that's about it. Looks kinda ugly imo.

Not cool. It's just a copy. As fun as it may be, you can't be cool without your own identity

Officially licensed from Lotus, so as legit as Ferrari now being a part of Fiat.

That being said, homebuilt Locosts are a step above on the cool chart.

Cool. Because you DON'T have to explain it.

Shagaliscious 08-05-2013 06:03 PM

As awesome as it is for the track, it's completely worthless everywhere else.

Uncool.

This...

While I'd love shredding a couple Lambo's & Ferrari around Virginia International Raceway....

I feel on the ride back home every person on I-95 would be laughing at me... and that my friends is uncool

Sub-zero. Especially in BRG with a yellow nose.

I am not a number... I am a free man!

Evo X.... you have to explain why it's cool to your chick because it looks like a sedan.

This thing.... undoubtedly cool. Maybe the casual observer doesn't know specifically why it's cool but they're gonna look twice.

i dont mind that its not build by lotus. i mind that its not built in the sixties (or like you noted, in someones garage). i wish it was more of a modern rendition than a hot rodded clone

The Evo X is a loud and flamboyant piece of kit, no one including chicks look at it and say... whats it for? They see it or get in and know it's designed for ripping your head off your spine while carrying you and your 3 mates

This though..... it looks to toy-ish. If you ever stop at your local Shell station 99% of [S]woman[/S] people will need explaining...

There going to ask why doesn't it have a windshield and doors? ***WHATS IT FOR?** and by the time you done receiving questions and explaining the answers, they would have lost interest 20 min ago
