Right, sure, keep on dreaming. I don't think that the Lotus will steal any significant share from the Z4, especially if they are not going to sell more than 2200 a year. Not to mention that the Lotus cant take any golf bags... And we all know where wealthy Americans (well not every American) go to on the weekends, with their "fun car", to the golf club

I can see Americans taking this car to the track, but I really believe that one of the problems with the Lotus, is the size. Don't forget in teh states every second car is either a huge ass van or a pickup truck, now imagine being in a small car like Lotus. Most people will feel uncomfortable in it.

Still it is a great car, and I hope it does well.
