The Lotus Evora is a sports car produced by British car manufacturer Lotus. The car, which was developed under the project name Project Eagle, was launched as the Evora on 22 July 2008 at the British International Motor Show.

Evora is the first product of a five-year plan started in 2006 to expand the Lotus line-up beyond its current track-specialized offerings, with the aim of making Evora a somewhat of a more practical road car that would appeal to the mainstream. As such it is a larger car than recent Lotus models Elise and its derivatives (Exige, Europa S, etc.), with an unladen weight of 1,383 kg (3,049 lb).

It is currently the only Lotus model with a 2+2 configuration, although it has been announced that it will also be offered in a two-seater configuration, referred to as the "Plus Zero" option. It is also the only 2+2 mid engined coupé on sale. The interior is larger to allow taller persons to fit, such as Lotus CEO Mike Kimberley, and two 6'5" (195.6cm) tall people.

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
I like this one, too, and it really is a good casting for a dollar car. I like the paint job as well. Not so keen on the giant, thick wing, but it won't stop me from buying all variations I may find.

Liking the colors on this one - it is an eye-catcher. And always great to see a British car in small scale die cast. :)

Compact
Nice model and a fairly good likeness apart from.... It's ride height and angled front splitter.

I know why HW, and many others, do this but it does detract from its looks.

I rarely race my cars on carpet or expect them to loop the loop.

Despite this an A for effort.
