The Lotus Evora S. It could have been the next MR2 if Toyota had been keen enough to make a new sports car after halting production of the MR2 in 2007.
Of course the Evora has a heart all Toyota with the 2GR-FE 3.5-litre Toyota V6. The "S" even has a supercharger. It swells the power of the Evora from 276bhp(206KW) to 345bhp(257KW), and there's an increase of torque from 258lb to 295lb ft.,
It'll hit 97 km/ph from rest in 4.6sec (4.8sec to 100 km/ph, a tenth quicker than a 911 Carrera even though at 1,437kg the Evora S is heavier) & go on top a top speed of 277 km/ph! matching the Cayman S, but a little short of the 911's 290 km/ph). The Nissan GTR though, of course, is significantly more potent still.
