I know what you mean Seung. Last year at the Chicago auto show:

(looking at a black Lotus Elise)
Father: (reading specs) "oh it's just a four cylinder."
Son: "0-60 confidential."
Father: "that means it never gets to 60 (laughs)"

That guy obviously knows jack sh*t about Lotus (or has a pre-conceived notion on cars and capabilities).

If the '05 Elise is anything like the Imported version (Sun International) it'll be in the Z06 performance range (but it'll handle a LOT better). Somebody needs to do their research.
