La Dolce Veloce

Some would say this comes straight from the horse’s mouth, but since I heard this secondhand (from a very reliable source), we’ll call it a rumor and leave it at that. You know that new Lotus Europa that’s been features on LaDolceVeloce and other car blogs (if not, see these posts: link1, link2, link3)? Well, according to some Lotus employees, those cars are suspension and engine test mules, and are not visually indicative of any real car models to come.

EDIT: Pistonheads has an article discussing this further (link). They speculate that the car in the spy shots is a version of the Elise that will be sold as a Proton (the Malaysian company that owns Lotus).
