This is one very lucky Lotus Exige

Driving into a racetrack involves risks, you have to be careful if you don't want to crash, or a car to crash into you. What you're going to see here is an Honda Civic nearly crashing into a Lotus Exige around Modena racetrack. The Exige tries to overtake the Civic but at the same time it attempts to overtake the Honda Del Sol with an imminent bad scene to watch. Calling this a close call is a bit reductive, it's just incredible at how close the Honda was to the fiberglass body of the Lotus, I think we were all expecting to see a crash from this!

Gulf Lotus X12 - What the..?!

Ladies and gentlemen, let's get right to the point, I have found out the ugliest car in the world, and I challenge you to prove otherwise. Middle East is the place where most people love tuning on expensive cars and sometimes we may find on internet videos these tuned cars of questionable taste, but this is really the mother of all the overkills. This car is called Gulf Lotus X12, and if you think that it comes from a Lotus Exige or something like that you're wrong, because actually, you can barely notice that this " thing " is based on a BMW X6! It's quite hard to find infos about it on Google, so hopefully I think that this is first and last time you will hear about this. Warning, if you are weak of stomach, don't watch the video.

Lotus Extrema

The Lotus Exige is a fantastic machine; it's light and with a power that goes from the 192hp of the N/A engine to the 260ph of the supercharged version, it has a very good power to weight ratio and it's faster than many other supercars with even twice its power.

But what happens, if you want more? The solution comes from italian tuner Composite Worx, that has realised the Lotus Extrema, a british car realized in the american way, and it's name really promises extreme perfomance.

The tiny 1.6L engine has been replaced with a massive 6.2L LS9 V8 Corvette engine that produces 650hp, and with a weight of just 970kg it goes from 0 to 100kph in just 2.9s, 0 to 160kph in 7s and a top speed of 322kph!

Lotus Exige S Hard Crash

The Nurburgring Nordschleife, or most commonly known as the Green Hell, is one of the most difficult racetracks in the world. Every year many people have an accident on this track, there have been even fatal crashes. The following video shows a white Lotus Exige S crashing at a very high speed, luckily the driver comes out the car without any injuries, he said that he lost the control of his car due to the coolant that a Porsche left on that part of the track.
