E-Type Jags are around 7.5second from 0-60mph, and 15.5 seconds in the
1/4 mile. Top end is really 143 to 147mph for the early coupes. Thats
it! But it sure is nice to have even that on tap... Lotus are less than
these numbers, though they have light wieght and good shapes to their
advantage. The Lotus forte' is handling (at least for the street). The
only possible exception to this would be the Esprit Turbo.
