        I remember hearing a figure closer to ~$40k somewhere.

          I wonder if they have an "ugly ass car" discount? Is Chris Bangle moonlighting at Lotus?
          Don't forget the good things Hitler did.

              I love that car. I dunno what you guys are talking about, but in NO WAY does it compare to Bangle's creations.

                    For real, the 0-60 is like 3 seconds. The thing has got to handle like a dream as well.

                      MSRP $39,985
                      190hp@7800rpm
                      Straight from Lotus USA

                      I wonder what that thing pulls on the skidpad.

                      :twisted:

                        I'm guessing it's a high reving celica GTS engine then?

                          Ditto. That was the one that you could import for track-use-only, right?

                          Either way the Elise is HOT!
