Those lotus are perfect weekend cars to drive for fun...
Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious. But when they are this good, who cares.
invisiblekid99 modern ones too tho?
@@janh1186 I have had an Elise for 15 years...45k miles...only issue has been a bad engine temp sensor...no mechanical issues whatsoever...a modern Lotus is vastly more reliable than a Lotus from the mid 70s...most people just rotely say that shit, but have no first hand experience with them.
Yep, 2004+ they all have Toyota engines and gearboxes. I run a 2006 Elise daily all year round. You get electrical issues sometimes but most are cheap to fix. From about 2011 they also switched to Toyota electronics, so most of those vanished too.
@@BlatentlyFakeName One of the added benefits of being light and simple, is reliability...there just is less stuff to break. I had an W211 E55 AMG for a couple years...It was a fast car for sure...but pretty complex mechanically...Lots of little gremlins to fail. Ironically, I also have a 1997 Geo Metro we bought new (the 3cyl model), which has no bells and whistles...everything is manual...door locks...climate control...windows...seats...and it is the most reliable car we have ever had. Great with mileage...street racing...well, not so much!
''Like a Wasp on Cocaine'' , Living legend! :)
a video with commentatory gives 10x more emotions than an uncommented one
When he stood up the car looked like a toy lol
Because of the fish eye lense. IDK why he chooses that.
@@justinkase1360 The car is really small though
The car is smaller then the average small car
How tall is this guy? He does make it look like a toy.
@@justinkase1360 because he uses a go pro?
"Byeee horsies"
*Everyone liked that*
And then proceeds to say hi to 460 horsies
8:18 to understand how small it is
wtf this is small hahahha
No he just big
wide angle lens will give that effect also..but the car is small..but not that small like how it looks on his camera
Pictures cannot describe how insanely small it is. There are generally 2 big missconceptions about an elise/exige: how incredibly small they are and how incredibly comfortable they are. Those cars are tiny with a ton of leg room and softer suspension than most people think.
Turboman_64 Exactly, they‘re superb once you‘re inside. The Öhlins suspension on my car here is even „comfier“ than the oem Bilsteins.
"The owner uses it like it should be used" 👏👏
Just love the sound of the supercharger 🤩
It's sound like supra a little bit
Naufal Arya no
420th like
Me too, I had a twin screw on my Mini, then the VMP 2.3 TVS on my GT500. Nothing like sold blower whine.
460 HP 1080 Kg Lotus :
Bye Bye ... Mustang
Price of lotus, byebye m340i, c43.
What about Porsche: Cayman, boxter
@@1ce2berg It's faster on track than the "old" Cayman GT4, but the new one will be quicker I guess. I'll find out soon enough. :D If you compare this very car to other Porsches... it's exactly on par with a 991.2 GT3 in Spa-Franchorchamps. The GT3-RS is a different ballgame.
@@BaeHarrier that's insane. But yea I would never get this over the porsche, simply because of the interior quality/finishing and the amazing reliability, and that matters as I am no mechanic. However, if I was really rich then I would definitely buy one as one of my track toys
@@BaeHarrier It depends how fast you can change gears in this Lotus :)
everything about this car is so sooo raw; the suspension,steering,sounds
even gordon ramsay would yell at it
Farhan L I think it would yell at Ramsay!
Do you have one? No, so how do you know?
Great car. I have a highly modified Elise and it's insane too...not quite 460HP, but at one time it was pushing 330 rwhp. Still freaking fun, and I cannot believe it's mine.
Take me for a ride
@@Matthew-np9fk Gold digger
I'm in LOVE with the car! Lotus chassis + Toyota engine + Manual transmission + proper S/charger mods = Perfecto
9:59 That throttle response...
I haven't get like for what reason, I don't get like on your comment
Lotus throttle responce on all of their cars is immediate. The second you press the throttle they are off.
“Darts around like a wasp on cocaine” that’s my new quote right there!
1:35 aww it's so cute, you could just pick it up and put it in your pocket.
man the supercharger whine is awesome
*WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
Yeah for a minute maybe, you'll get tired of it pretty fast, if you dont own a car with e sc you dont know.
@@swansmeister I wouldn't be annoyed.
It's a drivers car.
@@swansmeister Yea I even get tired of hearing my turbo spool up after like half an hour, back fires, never
@@swansmeister it doesnt whine when your not on it so it doesnt bother you
The Exige has always been abit too extreme for me but the Evora Oh man.
Lotus just does the raw experience like no one else. The experience is as close to *pure* as a driving experience can get.
If you want a bare bones experience, look no further guys, this is pretty much as good as it gets. 😌
Let's hope the Geely capital influx doesn't put them down the path of overweight EVs and detached luxury cars...
Donkervoort even better
@@MrCarGuy Evija is coming wooo
Noob Driver he probably meant cars like tesla
so im guessing you bought the Evora then, and owned the Exige since you gave your own little review there of the exige
Pure mechanical AND genuine Joy WITH nothing artificial ! That’s what makes it HELL OF A CAR !! Guys in a few years we all gonna crave it n won’t find it anymore 😭😭 that’s my sadness about dull cars of future
It took me a few months before my legs didn't shake when I get into my dad's Exige S1, even though it only has 177HP for ~780kg. These cars are insane, they might feel analog and bestial but the handling is very sane and well balanced, the steering is very rough but it feels like it's reading your mind.
Yes, nothing steers like a lotus. You can feel if you run over a stimorol or a sportslife. You feel every wheel. No other car gives you that
I own one of these cars and it's a testament to how great they are that Max can have driven all the cars down here that he has and is still so excited by it. Go Lotus!
Always been a lotus fan, their spirit of creating purity and simplicity for racing. They understand how to build a racing car that feels as visceral as possible.
What an awesome car!!! It flies!!! It must be a crazy buzz to be doing that kind of speed in something so small and light. I desperately need one of these motors in my life!!! Thank you so much for taking us with you.
I just love how passionate you are, keep up the good work, man! 😁
I drove an older Exige on a track day recently alongside a GTR Nismo and Mustang GT 5.0 and the Exige was way more involving and fun, good to see the newer cars still have that..
Man, one of the best reviews you ever made!!! It is so nice to see you enjoy so much a car like this hahaha. Thanks for these videos
The POV cam truly gives you a sense of the speed. Awesome.
Can feel how heavy and direct that steering is 🖤
Thank you for always being so considerate of the horses!
Lotus make the best handling cars on the planet.
Is it better than Porsche?
@@1ce2berg apparently
@@gdfggggg It's not, I can tell. Porsche have so much tech Lotus just can't afford developing. As said above, this very car is on par with a 991.2 GT3, but you don't stand a change versus a 991.2 GT-3RS. Like it or not, but Porsche know damn well how to max out their freaking rear engine! :) PS.: It's nevertheless amazing what the Lotus can do, I love it to bits. It's a chassis from 1996 with completely analogue technology and it's still that rapid.
@@gdfggggg upon further research, it is not better than Porsche lol
Taimur Ali ‘it’s not better than Porsche’, fitment, engine, looks yes, handling no.
Back again. This is so marvellous!! VERY good and entertaining vid, top notch!
Lotus Exige 460hp, wow.. aren’t they so beautiful to look at.. I would sit in this a lot even when I am not driving it
Wow. ❤️ that supercharger whine. Really excellent power delivery from that manual gearbox.
Thanks, this one in particular brought a real smile to me.
In an age where 'standard' high performance road cars are becoming more and more wonderfully engineered to be as easy to drive as possible (a good thing to be sure), something this raw brought back great memories as I got to drive some fun things in my youth 30 years ago.
Perhaps the most obvious comparison is the fantastically raw 2.7 Carrera with mechanical fuel injection with a redline starting at 7,200rpm. Of course it only made 210HP on 1,075kg but 45 years ago (yikes!) that was a lot.
I got to drive it in the 80s when I was in my late teens, a very close friend's father had it and would let me drive it (such a wonderful man he was). He also had a Porsche 911 3.3 Turbo (4 speed manual), so I was lucky enough to get to drive that somewhat notorious/legendary car many times before reaching 20 years of age.
I also got to drive some versions of the very famous Australian Ford Falcon GTs, manual transmission monsters with 5.8L V8s and no power steering. Those, too, were vast fun, although entirely different from the precise and agile Porsches. The XY Falcon GTHO Phase 3 is a world famous and very rare beast, one of them selling for AU$1,000,000 in 2018 (it also had the peculiar distinction of having been owned by Jeff Thomson, a world famous cricketer of the 70s and 80s widely regarded as perhaps the fastest bowler of all time; he is, of course, something of a legendary figure here in Australia along with his bowling partner, the great Dennis K Lillee who held the record for the most wickets taken in test cricket for some years and viewed as one of THE greatest fast bowlers of all time).
As I said, watching you have an absolute ball in this crazy go-cart reminds me of those days, although of course this is far, far quicker. The rawness, however, I expect is similar.
Manual Gearbox !! Oh my god !!! Old School , 460 HP with manual gearbox , excitint experience !!
An underated car. Lotus has always been my favourite car manufacturer since the Espirit. All journalist magazines go on about the Cayman. This is the best not a porsche guys, a british beast!!
is it weird that i am smiling throughout his videos? hahaha so excited to see max this excited 😁😁😁
I have a Komo-Tec Evora 400 with the same 460 kit and a bunch of aero. Not as cool as this but still an absolute blast to hammer on around the hills of western MA.
Love the Evora. Your's sounds very cool! I've got a BOE supercharged Elise with athe REV 400 kit. Lotus cars are the best. That Exige is perfection!
I love see how somebody feels cars and have fun with them
Has to be the best commentaries of all time, thumbs up, and very jelly :-)
Have one of the EX460 myself, there car is pure fun - for the ears, and your arms as well, without power steering. Pure, raw, loud and smelly (oh yes, the video does not mention it but you well smell the 98 Octane gasoline and the tires and the breaks after a good ride) driving experience :-).
Very true. And the tyre smell. 👍🏼
All these years that I follow you, never seen you as excited as with this Lotus car 😂
Amazing car!
Awesome car, awesome driving.
Manual transmition will never miss de emotion and will always be a challenge.
9:27 R a n o u t o f g e a r s . . .
12:52 L i k e o n r a i l s . . .
no the car has 6 gears but you dont want to shift up in such a car as a "newbie" to lotus
Yaaayy! Huge dude is back. Welcome Max!
r r veriyim mi?
You should consider taking a car like this to the A7 between Göttingen and Kirchheim.
Super curvy and yet no speed limit so it's like going on a track.
this car is awesome you need to make second part of driving it
My dream car damn! Great video AutoTopNL
I love your channel! Just the sound in your voice says it all!
Got a 350 V6..... Never try to go far than 200 km/h...... It s too scary !!!!
This car is just fantastic !!!!! It worth any penny !!!!!
10:25 that is why it is called „ass-phalt“...
You sum up Lotus, adrenaline rush and laughing. So much fun.
"Oh its very empty here" and puts the foot down.Awsomeee.
Sounds like mini gp / First Generation. Love that sound!
Love this car. Awesome video!
I've never seen a car sounds like this , this is a beast as fuck
WOW, you sure have a great job!!!!!! Yes sounds intense, there is a LOT to be said over the feeling someone gets driving vs fast track times, most of these new cars are amazingly fast but with all the electronics, DCG, etc. people lose the FEELING of driving
I am 64 and remember the Lotus brand from the 60's-70's like the Europa, true classics now
I love Lotus, pure driving
Wow. ❤️ that supercharger whine
this video made me smile ALOTS !!!!
When you're ready to shift at 270km/h and you're not sure if there's a 6th gear hehe.. lovely little thing!
Love this review....with a Camry engine no less,i no w also know that the 2019 Camry sport i have is not the most boring car ever.awesome job.
3 cars I want to buy in my life. Lotus exige s, lotus evora 400, ariel atom V8
Lotus Evora 400
So y are u watching this video
13:38 the moment he realizes he's going 200km/h with windows down.
3:43 squeezing into the car and KNEEING the camera lol
That car is MENTAL! I love small lightweight sport cars with quick accel.
It's been a while since I had these type of emotions only by watching a youtube video. Wow!
Ricardo Vasconcelos Love your V70. Wicked, revs like crazy. And that lovely five cylinder noise.
great sound, small car , lightweight car, powerfull, manual .. WHAT A BEAST
Awesome video sir!
Love the fact you always wave to the horses
😳😳😳 wow. on the Autobahn i was holding on tight my chair😃 this is a real sportscar! Only in a lotus
Yeah baby give it to me!
I have an s1 elise with a k20 engine in it , only 246bhp but I believe is around 200kgs lighter but thats enough for me. Cant imagine how fast this thing must be
Big big big thank to Jörg!!!
I'm now on the train to make this Upgrade! Also this video push me to this decision!
Christian Schmidt Yeah mate, my pleasure! So worth it.
so much happines in his voice haha :D epic car
Awsome sound!
I live for these sounds!
Your reaction is priceless !
ive been in the passenger seat of one of these and they are really fast, you honestly can experince a car until you are in it. when the driver did a 3rd gear pull, man you can feel it you are pulled into the seats and you can just hear that supercharger whine behind you it honestly gives you a rush. if i had the money i would buy one of these it doesnt compare to other supercars such a lamborghini or ferrari lotus truly is one of a kind. and i have to say being 6"1' its really hard to get into like i got a cramp in my hip trying to get in it but when your in it you feel at home the race seats really hug you and the alcantara dash and seats that was speced for the exige i was in felt more that luxurious i mean i was only in the passenger seat imagine the driver seat
Every car AutoTopNL drives looks like a fun car to drive.
"I feel like my ass is going to beat the asphalt". ~A true lifetime experience.
Very nice,I like this alot,thanx auto top nl
"like a wasp on cocaine i would say" lol nicest descrpition for this car
Your videos are like the best ever lol, someone who actually drives cars like it should be driven
Nice to see a car that's registered in my area :)
it will never be said enough: legal fun = light, light, very light car and as little assistance as possible.
At least you know how to drive a stick properly glory hallelujah looks so fun thanks for sharing
it was actually fun seeing you having fun. where can i drive one of these ? :D
really nice car!! Sounds great!
One of my favorite reviews..
I'm in love with this car 😍
460HP in this little nutshell :D Love this car
Thanks for the amazing ride Mate!
Amazing "F"ing car. Now my favorite.
this car is perfect for the roads in my place
man i've seen u driving alot of super cars,fast cars, u know what i mean, i hope that nothing bad happens to u,and drive safe!
Love it. Have a Lotus Evora
this video makes me happy .
I owned a car similar to this feeling called an Ariel Atom this is probably right in between an Ariel Atom and a Porsche GT4 much more raw and extreme than a GT4 but not as raw and Extreme as a Ariel Atom love it
Been in one as a passenger. Absurd speed/handling/acceleration and breaking. So fucking good
Wow what a drive
It felt like watching a 30 second video. If you can you also absolutelly must drive a facelift exige or elise, the new transmission is the best i have ever had the pleasure to touch.
I love Lotus cars. They're my dream cars. 😍😍😍
Amazing vehicle, I want one.
That is crazy, My LS6 Camaro Makes 461 N/A. This car is awesome
Yeah! The usual Lotus effect! :D
Right on my friend. As an owner of a supercharged Elise putting out not near the power of the car you’ve tested I’ve never owned a car that puts a smile on my face and that I look forward to driving more than the Lotus. I’ve owned a ton of vehicles and many of them high end and in fact I sold my Porsche to get this car. Sure, almost everything is more practical, but if you are looking for a super raw driving experience that will having you grinning from ear to ear without all the bullshit doo-dads that modern day performance vehicles offer, this is your ride. Want to be pampered? Look elsewhere.
what do you do for a living my man? wanna be able to afford these kind of cars one day
