Lotus Exige Series 2 (Solido) 1:43

The Exige is the more powerful coupe variant of the Elise. The Series 1 was sold between 2000 and 2002. This Series 2 was launched in late 2003, based on the most recently updated Elise. This version uses the same magic pill: this featherweight (935 kg/2,060 lbs)) receives a small but boosted 1.8-litre Toyota engine that originally developed 192 hp, then 220 hp in 2006 on the Exige S.

Solido launched the Exige Series 2 in summer 2016. The rather simple finishing of this model car (which is a faithful reproduction, however), packed into a cardboard box, explains its reduced price. Looksmart, among others, has already reproduced the Exige in 1:43 scale (in this case, the second generation launched in 2011). AutoArt also used to offer the 2003 S2, but this model is no longer manufactured.
