Does this mean the forthcoming 311 will be in excess of the £72k that the Evora 400 will cost.

Sounds like it will be some machine.

Another reassuring interview :thumbsup
If the 3-11 is most expensive Lotus ever it has to be simply awesome as its a huge amount of money for a track toy :shock:

The Evora 400 will take 60 hours fewer to build - that's 20 percent. It will also cost 10 percent less for Lotus to purchase its parts. And it will be lighter and higher in quality.
Forget all the chat about new customers, that line above makes Lotus much much more sustainable straight off the bat.
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?
