Yea, no pics. Just something I passed on the way home. Unusual for around here.

It looked like a mix between a Toyota MR2 and a Lotus GT1. It had a rectangular yellow badge in the middle in the front and back. 2 round headlights and 2 round taillights.

It was a gunmetal grey with spiffy looking gunmetal grey rims.

Not it. hmmm It was a hard top. The rear deck went out over the back end of the car and the tail lights were below it. But didn't jut upward like that one. Was more on the level with the rear deck.

2 seater, small. Smaller than my integra.

hmm I was also thinking of the Exige by Lotus but I realized they don't use a shield badge but have a rounded badge.

The front almost looked like a Lotus Esprit. Was a little more boxy looking that the Exige.

Watch me find a pic and it just be an MR2 with a fancy body kit. h:

Well this is the esprit



But if you have ever seen one in real life you will realize they really aren't that impressive and are much larger than your Teg by quite a bit. I would say they are a bit smaller in length than a Gallardo but not as wide either.
