Not back to back, but I've driven both, and didn't notice any big difference. Significantly increasing rear spring rate only would also shift the balance much more toward oversteer. Lotus would have no reason to do this, just as they would have no reason to have a significantly different ride...

It's unlikely the I4 has significantly different stiffness than the V6. Only the rear spring rates are different. The I4 has a different rear subframe so it probably just needed different pickup points and therefore motion ratios. The different rear springs are probably just what they needed...

Count me in.

Is this only in sport/track mode, or in tour as well?

A guy I know that can do car graphics did it for me, but I got to "help"

Yeah, gloss would work too if you wanted that look. I like the mixed finish look and actually originally wanted matte, but went with satin as a middle ground. The piece by the tail light is gloss though. Everything was done with knifeless tape so unfortunately no way to easily reproduce pieces.

More photos, I think I probably need a closeup from a more overhead view on the hood vents to better show how they look in person. I thought the 360 video was the best way to get an idea of how it all looked, but maybe not.

Those rear decals actually ended up being a bit smaller. The top profile is basically dictated by that crease in the body, and originally I wanted to then bring the inside part down lower and have sort of a double angle like the tail lights on the Evija, but it didn't look right because of that...

Yes, the vinyls near the vents are satin black like on the f430

Thanks, I posted on the facebook group as well and have been getting a very negative reaction. Quite surprising as everyone I had shown the car before and after really liked it. Maybe they were just being nice. I've done a good bit of design work in my life so I supposedly have good taste...
