As the Lotus evora finally begins to show it’s face in the US, new pictures begin to appear as dealerships and specialty shops show off their catch. Specialty Car Craft in Los Angeles is having a showing of their beautiful black on black evora April 22. This is quite tempting to go drive down to see as the evora isn’t scheduled to start showing up in the Bay Area until late May.  The black exterior and interior seating is a great look, but every picture I’ve seen of the console no matter the color has always put me off. The minimalist design aspect of the Lotus Group just doesn’t cut it as an excuse to why the console gauges and knobs look like they were ripped out of a dodge and coated with  metal caps. But then again who’s looking at consoles when driving such a wonderful machine. Included are pictures for both the Specialty Car Craft post and older black evora posts from elsewhere. It’s nice to finally see the evora arrive in the states, and now it just needs to land in the San Francisco area …

People know it’s not good for them yet they would eat it anyway and tempt death? Would you risk your life for broccoli or a mung bean? Now follow some commen comments and you would be lead to believe all that enjoy such a treat would be evil. Yet have you noticed how polite, happy and friendly some of the diners that service this type of eats are? Then again the argument could be made that this type of behavior is only true because nobody lives long enough to become more bitter with life. What better accents a dish of deep fried fat, but with a dipping sauce of more fat? OK even I admit this is a bit over the top, but everything has it’s compliment. The Discovery channel has always been good about hunting down these nooks and crevasses of crunchy eatery goodness. This either means they have a crack investigations department or replace a lot of road crews due to health insurance reasons. But with crunchy eats as a topic, anything deep fried is good …
