Jacques, don't do it. My crystal ball tells me you'll be regretting it.
I know it's not the most comfortable car but it's not as bad as my previous Z4M

theres no new engine coming out for them anytime soon... the same 190 hp engine will stay in the elise for years to come, although the new 2010 elise looks a little more refined than previous models.... the elise SC is an awesome car, but for the price i think an exige is a better choice. especially the new 2010 exige, which has a very nice facelift! the S240 is still the best performing car out there from lotus, even beats out the new S260 in 3rd party testing, but im not sure thats in your pricerange :0


anyways... enough of my rambling... get it!!
New engines are coming: http://www.superforza.com/category/british/lotus/

I would absolutely love to have one. Definately fits my style and wants in a car. Driven a few and to be honest I dont fit.

There is absolutely no way I can heel toe in that car without nailing my knee on the steering wheel. Even droppin the seat inches wouldnt help,
Im 6ft 2in.

The lotus wont work for me but if itll work for you go for it, expecially the elise sc or even exige, great fun cars, expecially with r comps.

Go for it, you only live once, and you're still young.

lol really a elise is more comfortable then a Z4M?.... maybe your judgment was foggy based on how much fun you had in the elise, imagine driving it more then once and also the contorting act to enter the car... but if the elise can compare to your favorite car the "boxster" then get it. if not, and you regreted buying it like the Z4M then dont get it.
