	Lotus Sport Exige - RSportsCars.com
		Lotus Sport, the performance division of Lotus Cars Ltd., has developed the new Lotus Sport Exige, a direct motorsport derivative of the successful Lotus Exige.
		The Lotus designed and engineered racecar was part manufactured by RTN, the team responsible for the Le Mans winning Bentley, using the latest motorsport techniques and procedures to produce a lightweight yet strong carbon-fibre bodywork structure around the standard road-going Lotus Exige Aluminium extruded and bonded chassis.
		The moulds were taken directly from the Sport Exige styling “clay” and the resulting carbon fibre panels are race-ready without having to rely on the costly tooling process used in current carbon fibre technology.

	MPH Magazine - Lotus Exige (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		For the sake of clarity, the Exige is just like a hardtop Elise with the optional sport package (which includes larger, lighter wheels and stiffer dampers) and a brace of aerodynamic doo-dads.
		Lotus is the only major carmaker left in the world that is wholly, fanatically devoted to delivering performance through the reduction of mass.
		That's not to say the Exige isn't great on regular roads, but unless you think your M3 is too soft or you want to piss off your neighbor who just got his Cayman S, you're better off with an Elise.

	European First Drive: 2006 Lotus Exige -- Inside Line (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		There is a corner at the infamous Nürburgring that sets the Lotus Exige apart from just about every other car on the road, the Lotus Elise included.
		And now, at last, the Lotus Exige is coming to the U.S. to join its soft-top sister, the Elise, launched in July last year.
		Though the driving position is inherently good — and by the time Exiges find their way Stateside in January, the awkward pedal box which makes heel-and-toe downchanges almost impossible will have been fixed — this is not the kind of car that's going to attract cruisers.

	Lotus Exige S - Rideroom News
		Being a Lotus, straight-line performance is not the most important factor, but every day driving on normal roads, or around a circuit is. There are very few cars on sale today that can match the speed, agility and safety of the Exige S in both day to day and track or circuit driving.
		The Lotus Exige S is built around the revolutionary and award winning extruded and bonded aluminium tub, with a light weight steel rear subframe, as used in the Exige.
		The body of the Lotus Exige S remains unchanged from the Exige, as it is already a winning formula that is both effective and stunning to look at.

	Lotus Exige
		That's hardly surprising, as the Exige is a road-going replica of the Sport Elise racer, albeit with a few concessions to type approval regulations and the rigours of everyday road use.
		Inside the Exige has two seats, rather than the single centrally located item in the Sport Elise racer; the central driving position was considered, but Lotus engineers decided that if you own a car as thrilling as the Exige, you'll want to share the experience with friends and family.
		Slowing the Exige down shouldn't be a problem either with the top class AP Racing front brake calipers and 282mm diameter cross-drilled and ventilated discs all round.

	Lotus Elise: Exige
		Although the official launch or the Exige was still a few weeks away, we’d been out on Norfolk roads in one of the Lotus development cars.
		The Exige is as close as Lotus could make it to the Sport Elise within the confines of European type Approval regulations and the practical needs of road use.
		The Exige goes on sale this summer and provides the perfect link between the Autobytel lotus Championship (in which the Sport Elise races) and Lotus road cars today and if Colin Chapman were alive today, he’d thoroughly approve of this latest edition to the Lotus Line up.

		All the Exige's body panels, save the doors, are unique, and these modifications help the Exige scoot around the 2-mile Lotus test track two seconds faster than the Elise.
		Other changes for the Exige are limited to reshaped seats (bigger bolsters and cut-outs to fit a racing harness) and fl wheels (either cast aluminum or the forged wheels from the Elise sport package).
		The yellow Exige shown in these photos is the only one in the U.S. at the time of this writing, and it is merely pit-stopping at the New York show on its way to crash testing, so keep your checkbooks at home for now.

		The Exige is based on Lotus' Elise roadster, and has already been on sale in Europe since 2005.
		The Exige's body modifications, including a fixed roof panel, sculpted engine cover, front-air splitter and rear wing, are intended to increase downforce at high speeds.
		At 100 mph, Lotus says that the Exige generates an additional 90 pounds of downforce (as opposed to the Elise at the same speed).

	2006 Lotus Exige - Road Test & Review - Automobile Magazine
		The way the Exige turns into corners seems shockingly brisk for the first few miles, but then you learn to appreciate how its precision can almost laser-guide you to an apex, how its immediacy can teach you to be a more conscientious helmsman.
		The Exige's custom bodywork-lengthened nose, front splitter, covered roof, new rear wing (only the door panels are shared with the Elise)-was engineered to increase downforce for better cornering.
		Additionally, the Exige runs on Yokohama A048 rubber-pretty much racing slicks with a few grooves-and their grip even on public roads is immense.

	GOLDEN GATE LOTUS CLUB - EXIGE NEWS!
		The Lotus Exige S is not a limited edition, nor is it an aftermarket special — it is manufactured from start to finish in the world leading and award winning Lotus Manufacturing facility at Hethel, Norfolk.
		The Lotus Exige S doesn’t have a multitude of user adjustment to the wheel or seat position — Lotus believes that the driving position is pretty close to perfect anyway!
		Since the bodywork on the Exige is “hand-laid” and the rest of the car is hand assembled, production will be limited to 300 to 350 cars for the U.S. The MSRP will be $50,990 when Exiges begin to arrive early in the first quarter of 2006.

	2007 Lotus Exige S revealed \| Leftlane News - Car News For Enthusiasts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Lotus today announced the 2007 Lotus Exige S, the latest addition to its family of lightweight sports cars.
		Lotus says it’s the “quickest Lotus production car - so far.” Inspite of this phenomenal performance the fuel economy is impressive with an official combined figure of 9.1 litres / 100 km (31.0 mpg) - extra urban is an impressive 7.2 litres / 100 km (39.2 mpg).
		Using a development of the supercharger and intercooler package developed first for the already legendary Lotus Sport Exige 240R, the Exige S has peak power of 218 hp at 7800 rpm, 215 Nm (158.6 lb ft) of torque at 5500 rpm (but 80% is produced at just over 2000 rpm).
