Fifth Gear pits the Lotus Elise against VX 220 Turbo

The VX220 comparisons are all over the place these days, as it’s built by Lotus and is more or less an Elise for a bit lower price.  But at the end of the day a VX 220 isn’t a Lotus is it.  I can’t seem to care about this car what so ever.  Ibelieve it used to be the Opel Speedster, yet another Elise spinoff.

I love how you can hear how much he enjoys driving the Lotus, you can actually hear the enjoyment in his voice.  I love the overlays that Fifth gear does on their comparisons, you can see where each car makes or looses time.  Of course the Elise wins, it is a clever boy afterall.
