Gee, Mack trucks have 300hp and 500lb/ft, I wonder why they dont get the top spot in sport car news.]]>Aug 24th 2006 3:32PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
(No, I don't drive a Prius - I drive a 400 HP M5. But we gotta get out of depending on the mid east asap)]]>Aug 24th 2006 3:37PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
Its funny... I once told told someone who knows absolutely nothing about cars about the Exige. The response was very similar to yours.. ]]>Aug 24th 2006 3:50PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/Aug 24th 2006 3:52PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
The result is 310 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque when the 9-5 BioPower runs on E85, compared to 260 hp and 258 lb-ft on gasoline. Additionally, the 9-5 wagon's 0-to-60-mph time drops from 6.9 seconds to 6 seconds flat." If GM enables this technology on the Solstice/Sky Turbo I won't mind getting E85 once and a while.]]>Aug 24th 2006 3:59PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
Lotus = only respectable car maker left...only cause they're on a mission to get RID of weight unlike every other car company out there that keeps their cars growing infinitely.]]>Aug 24th 2006 4:08PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
Is calling ethanol 'bio-ethanol' redundant in a lot of cases?
I mean, all the spirits I can think of (which are all watered down and aged forms of ethanol, save for vodka, which is just watered down) have their beginnings in some sort of plant... vodka is potatoes, Rum is sugarcane or molasses, bourbon and whiskey are grain, tequila is from agave pulp (sometimes other filler starches are used)... etc... even brandy and congac which are distilled wines (grapes)... ]]>Aug 24th 2006 4:28PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/24/green-speed-the-lotus-exige-265e/
