   there's nothing impressive about the lotus four banger other than bhp and
   bhp/liter.

Well, that's a pretty good start! especially compared with Audi's five-
banger slugs... it'll sure-as-taxes blow off anything Audi is willing to
sell to a mere civilian (until that first snow!) I admit, the one that
I got to test-drive a few years back was the definition of turbo lag
(makes a stock UrQ look downright responsive), but man on man when that
turbo finally awoke and spooled up!

Yeah yeah yeah, my bias is showing . . .
