Are Chrysler and Lotus related somehow???
This Dodge Circuit looks identical to the Lotus Europa. They were obviously not even trying to hide it. Have I been living in a box or something?

No. The difference is obvious. One is gray, the other is orange.

And yes, you have been living in a box.

and both will be shit
one American thus crap, and the other British, thus crap too....BUT with a Toyota engine, so it'll last long enough for the rest of the car to break

does anyone else notice the resemblance to the YES Roadster aswell??


I just noticed, aside from the front bumper it really is EXACTLY the same!!! Smae lines, intakes, hood, windows lights, mirrors ect!!!

maybe its like the Mitsubuishi 3000GT and Dodge Stealth project where the cars are the same just different badges

Jeremy clarkson would whoop your ass for comments like that.

Yes they are the same.

Lotus is in it to make money. Dodge bought a couple chassis no real business relation.
