$57k, plus $5750 for the 'high performance' engine:confused:

How is 197bhp High performance??

And it is pig ugly, I mean, I would be embarrassed to be seen driving it, unless of course they can actually go to the future:D

You may think it's ugly now but it was "cool" in the early eighties. An all stainless steel car designed by Lotus and built in Belfast was quite something but it never did have performance and was aimed at the American market. As a child I was able to go to work with my dad during the summer holidays and his job working for the fire service involved collecting brand new fire engines and taking them to Belfast docks to test pumps etc. So not only was that way cool for a seven year old but there would have been several hundred of these sitting waiting for the boat. Probably thought I was in heaven back then.
