The LOTUS ELISE!
Didn't get to test drive, though, since I had to get back from the lunch break. But next time...

$40,000 is a lot to shell out for one.

I love the rear of the car , but I think the front end looks too "extreme" for my taste.

It's only 10k less than a Z06, and it's only slightly slower. Granted it won't do 170mph, but that's something else entirely.

The Elise is an awsome car My friend in town just got her Orange Elise home from the Atlanta Dealership. Big thumbs up for the best handling car on the planet. The best thing is her husband has a yellow one comming soon. I love these cars.

For a track-only car, this would be a sweet. The thing looks a lot better in person. Getting in and out of the thing is a PITA, though. The salesman told me that the ride is the stiffest he's ever ridden in. Then he laughed and said a 70year old man came in a couple of weeks ago and wanted to buy one for his wife to cruise around in! He chuckled, took him for a little ride in it, and afterwards, the gentleman shook his hand and left.

Pics don't do that car justice. Anyone who does'nt like them should see one in person... 1000x cooler.
