Lotus?!? No. Mercury Marine of all things IIRC. Option pack doubled the price of the car. Very serious machine, certainly for the time. Counters any arguement that America couldn't build a real sports car.

Mercury built a Lotus designed quad cam V8 for GM - so this could be it.

As I said earlier, this is one clear exception. I don't expect that it is light and chuckable, but I have been at track events where some attended and they are very capable in all areas. The option pack was more than just the engine.
