Transmission: 267 bhp??? Btw nice add you got there.

After seeing your photos, it makes me think again.Hmmm... (I was thinking to add one of those too since Spark released them in mid 2010).. it makes me think more than 1000 times... still can't find any reason to capture one. But the upcoming super cars from Lotus looks stunning though.

Hi RC,

1st of all thankyou for dropping by & spending your valuable time to browse my work & i can't remember did you or did you not visit my blog before ?
Yup!!! You should collect also but one thing about Spark's diecast is the wheels is fixed , can't turn.
It's matched the price.But i hope they will improve the quality in the near future at least close to Schuco.

Thanks bro & hope to see you more often.

Cheers :)

Hi Kin,
This Evora is distinctively Lotus designed. It does have resemblance to the other previous cars it has produced. Spark got the overall shape very well :-)
Congrats!
Greetz!
