    i can't believe this car still doesn't have an F1 style gearbox.

    I can't believe they managed to make it uglier. First gen looked like a girls car. Second gen looked O.K. in white Exige suite, but still very awkward looking (although it clearly had its own identity - which is very good). This generation is just ugly. Maybe it will look better in black, white or blue.

    The headlights look a lot like the ones on the California. Also, wtf is with that front end? It's like the Elise and the Evora had a baby. I don't like it.

    Its definitely lost some of its masculinity. Not unattractive but I prefer the outgoing design.

    I can't believe you're suggesting it should have one!

    Front ends are changing on new models to deal with the new pedestrian front impact regulations.

    +1 on no F-1 gearbox for the Elise.

    In that case I vote for hitting pedestrians from behind, because this is not an improvement.
