Anyone in socal driving Lotus exige?

If anyone could take me a ride, I'll appreciate it so much.. I really want to know how powerful is this car..
The dealer won't take me for a ride because they said it's wasting the mileage,which sounds bs to me..

so if anyone out there not picky enough to drive their lotus exige, please let me know.

i have 2 friends with them here in the Southeast... no that doesn't help but i've been driven in them and the Handling is awesome, the car seems so gutted on the inside though,

powerful...not really, just Very light so its quick and nimble

its not too powerful but enough power for the car itself. on the track is where it shines. there was a dealer somewhere in malibu (forgot the name) where you can drive it. pretty far though

I work as a lot attendant at a Chevy/Hummer/Lotus dealer, they are fun to drive around on the lot, but they're hell to get in and out of( I am 5'7). They have decent pickup, but the Toyota sourced 4 banger sounds like crap( I much prefer the Civic's 4 banger engine note). Everyone at the dealer jokes about how they're just street legal go carts.
