MILPERRA, Australia - December 1, 2008: Celebrities endorse Lotus Evora by signing up for the new sports coupe, to make its Australian debut in Melbourne.
The order book has only been open for a few weeks but already the popularity, stylish good looks and performance of the Lotus Evora has attracted some of the world’s rich and famous, who have put their name down to be part of the first group to receive their own exciting 2+2 sports coupe when it goes on sale in 2009.
It’s slightly ironic that the launch marketing campaign for the Evora presents the car as having ‘true character in a faceless world’, as the famous faces have flocked to the Lotus Evora’s sleek styling, practicality and unique performance. Sporting legends, supermodels, Hollywood movie stars, TV personalities, musicians and even the Mayor of London have all put their name down to be part of the first batch of Lotus Evoras to roll off the Lotus production line at Hethel in the UK in early 2009.
Two out of the three Top Gear UK TV presenters have put their orders in with Richard Hammond and James May both on the list, alongside current and past James Bond 007 actors Daniel Craig and Pierce Brosnan.
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London, has joined the likes of USA TV personality and car nut Jay Leno, musician Jay Kay and supermodel and car enthusiast/race Jodie Kidd in joining the Evora’s list.
Musicians and actors are clearly in love with the Lotus Evora, attracting Beyoncé, Dave Grőhl, Kelly Rowland, George Clooney, Kevin Spacey, Patrick Dempsey and JLo, who will all get to experience the legendary Lotus ride and handling within the world’s only mid-engined 2+2 with a 3.5-litre 206kW V6.
Lotus Cars Australia Sales & Marketing Manager Jonathan Stretton has also confirmed when the Lotus Evora will first be seen in Australia: “We delighted to confirm that the Lotus Evora will make its Australian – and southern hemisphere – debut at the Melbourne Motor Show in February 2009, where we believe it will be the star of the show.
“It is a very important car for Lotus in Australia and is also the biggest milestone for Lotus globally since the Elise was born 13 years ago. The fact we are one of the first international markets to have the Lotus Evora on display shows the commitment that Lotus pays to the Australian market.”
Russ Tyrie, Melbourne International Motor Show Director, said of the announcement: “We are genuinely pleased and enthused to have the Lotus Evora confirmed as one of the stars of the show. The Melbourne Motor Show has a long history of showcasing significant new Lotus models over the years, so we are delighted to see that tradition continue at our 75th annual motor show.
“This car will be one of the undisputed star attractions and it is also the first major star to be confirmed. We’re sure that amongst the field of high performance and exotic supercars, the Lotus will be a standout.”
Lotus Cars Australia already has a significant number of expressions of interest for the Evora, with final specifications and Australian pricing expected to be released at the Melbourne International Motor Show.

Well, it looks like a Lotus. It's a nice looking car, but if I had tons of money, this one wouldn't top my list of cars to buy.
Not sure I would either but there you go and it's nice to know in this recession the little luxuries can still be bought isn't it?
I guess style is never affected..another world altogether.
It will look nice parked outside his 4 million quid new home in London.

I can just imagine Craig pulling up to a traffic light in his Lotus, and looking to his left he sees Brosnan, sitting in his Lotus, glaring back at him. They both nod and rev their engines...

If he was trying that hard not to be noticed, would it be a dick move for a real fan to go up and talk to him (ask for an autograph etc.)?
Hmmm...WWBD?
(what would Bryce do?)..

Upon waking up in the ICU at Cedar's, I'd realize I should have kept my mouth shut - although my jaw would probably be wired shut at that point.
Seriously, when I've spotted a celeb at LAX doing the "hat and shades" thing, especially one who just got off a sixteen plus hour flight from Tokyo and is the star of the current number one movie in the world, I'd think to myself "Wow...That IS him." and keep my distance.
But, hey Dan, if you are still in town and would like some great Italian food, I know the perfect place. My treat.
I also know about twenty beautiful women that would love to join us and sit quietly. They all would promise not to drool...Well, not too much.
The reataurant has great food and 5000 bottle wine cellar. They also make a true Vesper.

Well, the first thing I'd do is give him crap for missing my birthday by a day.

Bryce you are such a card..cad..no, card..
I think Dan might go for that but the his gf might not...
Yes, well as to the "I'm wearing shades in the evening and trying not to be noticed but really want to be" thing happened to me once..saw Russell Crowe (at Gladiator time) walking through Heathrow...I swear he was looking around through his glasses to see if he was being "noticed/ignored"..
These movie people..what a bunch..

The wired jaw thing from:
a) pissing Craig off about missing your b/day by a day
or
b)slipping on an actress?

Right on both counts. Actually, I think the lovely Miss Mitchell might enjoy some "girl talk" with the ladies I have in mind while Dan and I knock back a few (dozen) martinis.
Just sayin'.

A little from column A, a little (actually several times) from column B.

And Dan, there's really no point wearing a silly bonnet. Even without your ears out, you're pretty recognizable!

Dan back in London after intensive Defiance promotion:

Very nice to see him out of the shoulder sling. Hope it's mending well.
I have a work colleague who had the same problem and the identical operation....it is a so-and-so to heal properly.
