Buying Exige

Thinking of buying a low miles car in Calypso red - anyone seen one in this colour?

I once saw one in a dealer in Salisbury - looked great(ish) but this one had the wrong mirrors on it

Saw it in a Sheffield dealer’s website pictures, when I was looking for my Exige - although it did look striking, I wondered how easy it would be to move on in such an unusual colour? That said, there can’t be many of them about so you have the advantage of owning something of a rarity.

I was never quite so sure in red. Seemed to look more like an Elise S1 for some reason. It also seemed to be trying to be a Ferrari but not quite working.

I always wondered what a metallic Rudy red one would look like?

Red ? No thanks… doesn’t look good (IMO)

Tony,

They put the correct mirrors back on it before they sold it to me! And what’s all this rubbish about red not being a ‘good’ colour for the Exige? All least when I meet up with you guys I don’t lose my car amongst all those common blues, greys & blacks!!

I mean haven’t you heard, “red’s the new black”!

LOL… i agree…

BTW I saw a red exige being delivered to its new owner from my local dealer a few years ago… it was the LAST one in that colour and had to be specially sprayed for the buyer. It looked much much better than i had expected. I liked it !!
