Serious contender? YES! at around 60 g's you can have a true bred sports car. with half the cylinders, and over a 100 hp drop from the slk 55, this car still woops it. 0-60 in 4 sec. one whole sec off the slk's time. and 25 mpg? pretty sweet. Granted, the mercedes is everything this isnt. But remember, this is best sports car for price, not luxury mixed with sportyness. This is where the lotus exige destroys its competitors. Less then 4 feet tall, the g forces exerted give the driver and passenger such a greater feel of speed. You obv dont get that v8 growl, but with the 1 sec 0-60 diff. i can live with a blender noise. lol. braking is obviously amazing, almost going from 60-0 in less then 3 digits. Which is incredible, and slalom times thatd make a corvette look like a hummer on a wet road. This car is just amazing. Watch out, this car is top 3 in my list for competitors in my list. Not telling where it places.

I think this and the Porsche 911 GT3 (i think its the GT3 or whatever the one that is completely stripped down to only basics is called) are amazing cars for those who just want to drive for the sake of driving.
