$11,990 AUD Drive Away. Lotus Ride and Handling.

Shame it didn't get the Lotus engine and styling too. What do you think?

1 US Dollar buys $1.08 Australian so that's a bad estimate on your part.

12k Aus is about 11k in US

Lotus has sold its "handling" to other car companies before, and while they weren't horrible, they didn't handle like a lotus

... it does have an adjustable steering wheel so half of YW should be sold.
