Drove my buddies Elise yesterday and this thing is ****ING INSANE!! 2nd gear and I was hitting well over 75 mph and I had 4 more gears to go! I was hitting the corners easily at 45-50 mph with not one single complain or sound from the tires and this was in his neighborhood. This is a true sports car meant to just drive, drive and drive like u stole it! It is such an impractical car, it's only use is to drive the hell out of it b/c as far as comfort, forget about it. When you hit the reflectors on the road its like hitting speed bumps. You feel every single nook and crany on the road it is unbelievable. There is no other use for this car. The glove box is the same as the trunk and the trunk fits maybe 4-5 grocery bags! If I had the 50 grand, I'd buy it in a heart beat.

Judging by your handle I'd say you have (or want) one of the best sports cars that is meant to be driven hard. Take your '05 and put $30k in it... May not look as flashy as a lotus but I'll put money on it you'll be running with your buddy with no problem.

It must be fun to drive but I wouldn't want to wreck one, it's tiny!
If you like roadsters, the next generation Mazda Miata was just shown in Europe, check it out!
