00:00So I've driven more than a hundred sports cars and here are five things that I think make the perfect
00:04sports car
00:09So number one you have to look at it and know that it's a sports car
00:12And I think this Lotus Amira might even look more like a supercar
00:15We've got real vents here in the bonnet real vents down the front real vents down the side too
00:20This is your air intake and it sounds really cool
00:24And finally it has to have real exhaust tips these ones here for sure but there's real ones tucked inside
00:29And then number two it has to have a mid-engine rear wheel drive layout because that gives you a
00:34more precise front end
00:35And a better driving position because there's no engine up front
00:38You don't have to contend with it and you can sit closer to the front wheels and the number three
00:41It's everything you touch and feel you have to have a good steering rack if you're lucky
00:45You'll get it in a mirror with a hydraulic steering rack a dual clutch automatic or even better a manual
00:49transmission and a great brake pedal feel
00:52And if you're lucky you'll even get a selection of drive modes
00:54We've got tour sport and track and they change all the characteristics of the car
00:58And at number four you need a characterful engine
01:01Here we've got a two liter turbo petrol engine AMG sourced with 268 kilowatts of power or 360 horsepower
01:07But you can also get a supercharged V6 with even more horsepower
01:11And finally at number five it's size and weight
01:13This Lotus Amira four-cylinder weighs just over 1,400 kilos which makes it one of the lightest sports cars
01:19money can buy in 2024
01:20And finally at number six it's size and a two liter of level
01:21That's at number 25
01:21I love the lockません
