The Lotus Exige GT3 Concept is a tribute to the cars that race in the British GT3 Championship. The Lotus Exige GT3 Concept uses the same engine as both the street and racing Exiges, a Toyota-based supercharged-and-intercooled 1.8-liter inline-four that, in this case, produces 271 horsepower. Lotus claims that should be enough to propel the Lotus Exige GT3 Concept to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds (0.2 second quicker than an Exige S) and to a top speed of 160 mph. Visually, the Lotus Exige GT3 Concept stands out with its large rear wing, flared rear wheel arches, and new clamshell front cover. Although this Lotus Exige GT3 Concept is officially a concept, Lotus has already announced plans to sell this rocket in the U.K. later this year for about $100,000.
