How good is the new Exige V6 S? Very...

Full review to come next week, but I was lucky enough to have this for the day today and by God, it's good. GT3 good...

In fact, I'd go as far as to say that even if it were the same price as a 997.2 GT3 was new, I'd take the much cheaper Exige.

It's absolutely sensational.

I love the new look. Any shots of the interior? What is the new price compared to the old Exige S? (the original S, not the 240)

They haven't started deliveries here yet.

The interior is the same as the old Exige/Elise, but with more leather. Simple yet effective...

It's £52,900 in the UK, with a few different packs as options.

But even a fully specced up car won't be over £60k which is epic value.

345 bhp, 295 lb/ft, 1176 kg.

Brilliant looking car. I would love to test one out but they're not coming to the US.
