look for it to be about $39,000.
a *little* pricey for a sport-compact, but it's a mid-engined RWD car with 190 hp and only weighs about 1975lbs (that's only 10 lbs per 1 hp, pretty good) it's definately compact, only 149.0" long and 67.7" wide
the engine is, in essence (tweaked by Lotus), the 1.8L I-4 from the Celica GT-S
it should 0-60 in under 5 seconds and run the 1/4 mile around 12 seconds
the handling is amazing too, down to the custom tires from Yokohama (exclusive to the Exige)
should be available in the US this spring, but only 3000 will be made the first year.
