My "other" car
Here are a few pictures of my other car. Its a 2006 Lotus Elise. It has its fun points (as well as its tiresome points).
The best way to sum up the differences (although there are many)...or at least the differences in the way it feels to drive vs the 135 would be comparing a wooden rollercoaster to a steel coaster. |

Nice, I've always wondered how those are to drive. I have to say I really do like yellow on the Elise.

Lotus's are wonderful cars. I would love to have one, but my only complaint would be the interior, which needs some more touches at that price range... I am not talking about adding sat nav or anything, but a more professional look like the Scuderia instead of the pure aftermarket racer look... I really really hate the stereo system... can't they just make something that's integrated?

I love the Elise/Exige as well. Not a car I would own, but they do drive amazingly( for the slow and short trips around the dealership lot when I worked at a Chevy/Hummer/Lotus dealer as a lot attendant). The clutch is one of the easiest clutches I have used in my limited manual experience. The only 2 things I hate about them is that the Toyota sourced 4 banger sounds like crap and it is a bitch to get in and out of them.
