Cannot be stiffer than the Nitrons fitted to Egor - I've been hammering it over the cobbles in Edinburgh for the last couple of days - fillings and car still in one piece :-)

Suspension is firmer than the Exige but not crashy in any way, it's quite compliant.

Your car looks awesome - my non-Lotus-driving mate came over first thing and said - "did you see the awesome green exige in the car park??"
