exactly my thoughts. How come Nissan can get over 270 out of their normally aspirated 3.5L family car engines and this GT car only has 270? I am used to Lotus' seeming underpowered because they are featherweights, but a ton and a half is a lot for an unimpressive engine to tow around. If nothing else turbo the thing or something...
