The Exige Sport 350 weighs just 1125 kg and has shed 51 kg compared to the previous model Exige S. This is done via louvered tailgate panel, a lighter battery, lightweight engine mounts, a lightweight centre console featuring an exposed gearshift mechanism, lighter HVAC pipework and the optimised use of sound insulation.

The 3.5-liter supercharged V6 engine generates 345 hp and 295lbft of torque at 4500rpm. That's good for 0-60 in 3.7 seconds. And 300 hp per ton.

The rears are driven via six-speed manual, or paddle-shifted manumatic.

The downforce is no joke. 42 kg of down force at 100 mph with the rear wing and flat underside both contributing

The interior is sparse, of course. But there is a tartan seat option, which everyone should buy. Right now.
