The 06 NA Exige may win on a very tight circuit, but in general I don't think it would stand a chance against the e92 M3. The Elise with suspension mods is lighter (and I think faster) yet it won't even beat the e46 M3 on most tracks.
The 240 S is a different story. It has the potential to keep pace on most tracks that didn't have long straights - that would be an entertaining match to witness.
And as a side note - the Lotus is not a good track car for anyone who can't afford to potentially spend 30K to fix it should a wall come up too close on the track and damage both clams and carbon fiber crash structure - which is quite common. It is a bloody expensive car to repair and IMO not worth the money for the performance. Most STi's and Evos on the track will take an Elise or NA Exige.
