vErnon B. sArnE
Let’s give Chris Evans
a chance. The Jeremy
Clarkson era is over
now. It is what it is.

PAulo rAfAEl suBido
The Aston Martin
Vanquish may well be
the most awe-inspiring
car I’ve ever driven.

stEPhAniE Asi-dE CAstro
We shot our Lotus
cover in a hangar com-
pound. Can’t wait to see
those cars on the track.

dinzo tABAMo
I wanted to try a Lotus
Elise the first time I
saw it in the metal.
I hope I’ll fit inside.

trACy CArPEnA
Blimey, we’re witness-
ing a British automo-
tive invasion! Exciting
times for car shoppers!

JAson dElA Cruz
I’m fond of Lotus
and its lightweight
philosophy. Nice to
have the brand here.

ElAinE lArA
We should use heli-
copters more often
for cover shoots.
#WeLikeThemEpic

rAynAnd olArtE
Taiwan is no united
Kingdom, but the cars
we shot there more
than made up for it.

As a kid, I loved driving
a Lotus Elise on Need
For Speed. Welcome to
