Agree. Kind of feel the evora rear seats were a marketing tick box against the 911 rather that designed to be actually useful.

I'd love a lotus v60!!!! Could be close to perfect daily car.
Sporty volvo didn't exist over here. Everything is automatic and mostly suv. We have xc70 with the current t5 engine/8 speed auto as family car. It's nice car but drive train isn't the best for driving.
Personally I think lotus should have ~5 cars:
- exige equivalent track weapon
- elise equivalent road/track sports car
- espirt equivalent "super" car
- true gt/2+2 everyday usable car
- ejivia hyper car
Then add a few lotus tuned cars around the other geely brands.
