Lotus Elise
 
so i finally saw a Lotus Elise up close today. DAMM, it was tiny. smaller than a mazda miata, actually, but it was gorgeous with its metallic grey paint job.

all I can say is screw the acura integra Type R and Porsche 911 i've been dreaming of after all these years. the elise is my new dream car.

When I went to "the dragon" New Years day there was a purple one and a yellow one.... wow! They were nice but you like right on the ground...literally.... but they sounded and looked really good.... but neither of the guys would let me drive the I got to sit in one though..... but the S2000 parked beside it looked pretty good too!:D

Yea, the Elise is pretty sweet and very tiny. But it rocks the celica engine from what I understand.

190 horsepower variant mixed with a 2,000 lb. curb weight.
