    Thanks man!

    Yeah, I have been on elisetalk for about a month now. It was driving me crazy not having one. I made the mistake of test driving one last weekend. It was all over at that point.....100% sold on it...

    I blows it away. An unmodified turbo will be lunch, even in the straights. And, and unmodified MR2 spyder will be easy lunch in the twisties. The road feel is amazing! No power steering, and a feeling like you are litterally glued to the road.

    That is my assesment from my short drive home.

    The Lotus will be my daily driver for about 8 months out of the year. I will be getting a cheap beater for the winter months. Although I will only be driving it half of the week, as my wife and I car pool to work....we can take her car when its raining....
