How does a Lotus Evora 400 compare to my Evora S?

[@000GunterGabriel000]

Nice seeing you both doing a twin-review!

[@ThorburnJ]

Here from JayEmm's channel and a new subscriber - nice to see another Evora owner doing good content on KZbin.

[@Number27]

Welcome James, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@mrbentley855]

coming round to liking the Evora's...............looks growing on me.....

[@FreePalestineFreePalestina]

Cool video, I really enjoyed the soundtrack and you're right you may need a louder exhaust system in your S.

[@jasonwright9555]

Another great video. I really like that you are doing so many reviews on various different cars. Top work.

[@deviklovecraft3835]

Totally agree about the rear end of the S vs the 400 ... it’s leaning perilously close to Civic type R styling insanity 😅... That said, I do like the front end of the 400 a bit more perhaps , but I prefer the one on the Mansory wide body kit even more.

[@Number27]

Cheers Devik, good to know I’m not alone on the Evora back end

[@davep5829]

As an S owner, I'm biased.... But though the 400 is a wonderful car, and that noise is something else,, for looks I still prefer the S

[@Number27]

Yep..luckily I will soon have the cat delete on mine!

[@jahoo552]

Great review! I think you're right, new Pilot Super Sports or 4S should improve ride quality if you're running an old tire, hard tire right now.

[@PaulDoldenDetails]

Sounds epic yes time to change your exhaust system Jack mics are fine lovely soundtrack 👌🏻👌🏻

[@henryhol8538]

Well done to both of you. Its good to see how the car has progressed since I first saw it at the very last British Motor Show. These films shows the great value of the Evora S!

[@Number27]

Thanks Henry, glad you enjoyed it!

[@bispal]

Still using my roads ;-) I love you can see the throttle body moving through the rear window. AWESOME!

[@Number27]

BISPAL indeed... owe you for having shown them to me!!

[@Faithinthedock]

Nice review.. Regarding the exhaust situation. In Basildon Essex there is Hayward & Scott, and also Pipecraft who both do custom exhaust fabrication. If you're looking to release some more 'bark' from the Evora, they may be worth a shout..

[@Number27]

For sure.. but as I was not planning on keeping the Evora I did not want to spend money on another back box. Thanks for watching!

[@LawrenceTimme]

I don't like the newer front on the 400 and 410 at all but the 430 looks great :)

[@nanzers7785]

Cool to see them both together, looking forward to hear your S with upgraded exhaust :)

[@Number27]

coming very soon!

[@EvoraGT430]

We're still waiting with interest :-)

[@TH4TU53RN4M3TH0REVIEWS]

Plack Exhaust on 2011 NA solved my issue of the car being too quiet. Check it out for the install that way you can see what you are getting into.

[@Number27]

will do!! thanks for watching

[@amphilbey]

400 does sound fantastic, think Lotus finally got the styling right with the GT430. A bit like with Jaguar and the XK the original Evora front intake is a bit old fashioned.

[@ryanmccormick2150]

Loved the video Jack! I think your seat look better , not normally a big yellow fan but that car does look good! 😊🖒

[@Number27]

Yep, lovely thing!!

[@raybrock6083]

Came over from James chanel to check you out and subscribed! Love Lotus and subscribe to all who own one until they sell!

[@Number27]

Thats great, much appreciated and welcome on board Ray!

[@MikeyBee1]

How funny you doing a comparison with James as I follow him completely separately and never knew you had a connection!?

[@Number27]

Ha!! youtube is a small world!

[@RogerBaileyOnCars]

excellent video, great review, i really must get around to driving an evora - my channel is full of Porsches and needs a change! This video is a great watch - thanks !

[@Number27]

Thanks mate.. it was fun doing this one with james!!

[@KarelBeelaertsvanBlokland]

Evora 400 sounds amazing!..... Front even looks better!

[@Number27]

It does sound epic!!

[@carlharvey7098]

Oh that sound is WOW!

[@Number27]

EXACTLY!

[@pj9375]

What's the price difference between the two if you took equivalent mileages condition etc. Both are lovely, and agree about the exhaust. Another passionate video thanks!

[@Number27]

not sure.. but I think about £20k..

[@pj9375]

Yes looks about right, which is a hell of a premium for a louder exhaust and 50 odd bhp which you probably only really notice at the top end. Agree, I do prefer the front on the 400, but still. I think the S is the sweetspot.

[@krishey7834]

Very nice video! My opinion: prefer your interior (for sure those recaros). Front end is indeed better on the 400. Your Color is much nicer. Still i'm not getting convinced by the lotus. Chill on those videos :). Lots of content

[@Number27]

Ha!! the reluctant Lotus fan!! Thanks for watching..

[@krishey7834]

If it was an Exige ... :). Deathtrap mk1 (k20 swap maybe :)) But those are hardcore machines.

[@mjohannssen]

Great video as allways

[@SunWindWave]

Well comparing the 2 cars, James's front end is way quicker. Ditch that eu plate on yours & it will turn in so much sweeter. Ha-ha, sorry, no politics!

[@steffydog]

That’s sounds epic

[@cb5528]

is this an aftermarket exhaust or stock ?

[@DFWsCars]

Stock, it’s valved on the 400 tho

[@seivaDsugnA]

Nice ess.

[@jeffreysalzman1497]

Great video, I couldn't agree more concerning your thoughts on the front and rear of the Evora S. This is my future car... someday. Have you looked at the front bumpers they have at hethelsport.com

[@Number27]

Intersting to see, thanks!!

[@beetleything1864]

4-3-2-1 till you sell the S for the 400

[@Number27]

Ha!! don't think so as long as I can sort out the sound! soon hopefully

[@earthstick]

The only problem with the looks of the S are the front. Too plain and characterless. The GTE was the second attempt and they nailed it. The 400 went to far with the creases. The back is far too busy, the wing is a disaster and the black thing under the front number plate looks like a rubber band. But they seem to have realised their mistakes and the 430 just about hits the sweet spot that they found with the GTE.

[@JayEmmOnCars]

earthstick The GTE was not really a Lotus product

[@Chrissy-H]

The 430 is a fabulous looking thing... It just strikes the balance perfectly between road and race, in the same way a 458 speciale or GT3 does.

[@earthstick]

Masonry I think but in any case they nailed the front and everything else was right from the beginning. Now I know you have a 400 so my comment might not go down too well but I still think the creases were a poor aesthetic. It is typical for later generations to become more angular. It just looks like lazy design to me born from a lack of confidence in the original design.

[@Number27]

agree on the front..still love this car and it's a good compromise if you can't afford the 400!

[@DunsfoldDave]

Boxhill with no cyclists!!!

[@Number27]

I know, rarer than an Irishman drinking water!!

[@ЕвгенийЛенков-ъ4й]

Sounds like a truck at low revs...(

[@justinjoyit13]

I do like your channel and I do think you are a good guy but in my opinion you don't focus enough on what your audience actually is looking for ( I know you ask... but that is not the same thing) even though you are dealing with cars that are an audience favourite- and that is plain by views. I have seen for instance bad comparisons of vehicles, even though you justify your choice- they are still really inappropriate, my guess is that is what came about, but I would say, then just dont make a video that day, because you just lose people FOREVER.And yes, tartan pj's are a worthwhile gimmick for some... but well.. besides being in Scotland... many people think like I do... they are just long knickers and make you feel a wee bit uneasy...we are in the silent majority. Stop it.
