I’m looking to buy a new Exige ( non S ), but still in doubt for a few things.
I did read that the interiour is going to change end 07- beginning of 08. Are there pictures somewhere to show the difference? Also, super sports pack. Are the 1 way Bilsteins good, or is it better to go for Nitrons instead? In other words, just buying the seperate items afterwards.
Have a '02 S2 now, the braking feel will be reduced due the assisted brakes, but what about the ABS? Not to annoying on track?
Thanks all.
( Car wil be used for spirited road and the occasional trackday. LoT off course )
Hi
If you are looking at a standard Exige I would recommend you buy 2nd hand as you will save a ton and the improvements they have made are not worth the extra outlay and depreciation.
I would get a standard Exige maybe 05 vintage and go to some where like Plans and spend a bit on Ohlins, RS42 brake pads, decent brake fluid and adjust the brake pedal. You will have saved yourself a lot of cash and have a sorted car!
ABS is actually really good only triggers after your wheels are sliding a far bit so tends not to be an issue.
Well, my post wasn’t that complete, live in Belgium and residuals are a lot stronger here. Still get �20-21k for my 24k miles Elise. Although with the Elise S starting to drop relatively quick. Also, since the market is a lot smaller, not very much 2nd hand cars available.
