    Which one is Cooler?

    "Cooler" in terms of acceleration? Power? Handling? Looks? Cost?

    I would say the Exige S is "cooler" its lighter, quicker, and I would bet a lot more fun to drive than a GT500. Then again I don't really like Fords.

    BTW the 0-60 for the Exige S is 4.1 seconds.

    Handling wise I'd go with the exige.
    But, the GT500 is just badass.

    I doubt revving the Exige would result in a sound so terrifying that small children would run in fear.

    That's why Monaro/GT500 > all other cars (except anything with a chipped 1.8T...)

    I suppose that when both are being driven to full potential the Lotus will use about 50% less fuel...

    It'll probably have at least 50% more ability too, but the Mustang to me represents something very reassuring and solid. The advert is very cool, even if it's a load of BS

    I love watching that commercial! Look at the lane discipline of the supercar drivers!!! They actually moved over for faster traffic. If only we could have that here...

    Put it this way ... you can't hear yourself speak when gunning an S1 Exige. The S2 is barely quieter.

    But it probably sounds closer to a vacuum cleaner than an artillery barrage like the GT500.
