Lotus Evora gives birth to six foot tall human

lotus evora trunk

Luxury sports vehicles are not always known for spacious storage areas. In a recent Road and Track story Photographer Chris Cantle demonstrates how a six foot tall man can stuff himself into the trunk of a Lotus Evora. From the pictures previously seen of the Evora trunk, it actually did not look like there was that much storage. It is a wonder however if either Chris belongs to the mafia and was function testing the vehicle or it some how randomly dawned on him (or a coworker) when driving in to work, “Maybe I should see if I can stuff myself into a small sports trunk today”. I’d also like to add that rearranging the pictures it looks more like a auto birthing process, but maybe that bit was already tried and a six foot man in a diaper crawling out of a sports  car in a parking lot was a bit much. Ahem, and now for something completely different … at the very least it’s great to start seeing new articles show up ( and a funny one at that ) about the Lotus Evora.

Black Lotus Evora

black lotus evora

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 …
