    I Love that car! Not just that one, but all the lotus'. I myself favor the Exige. But what bothers me, is that the darn rvm is not centered with everything else. I have an OCD with symetrics and feelings. Other than that, thats a bada$$ car.

    Tiny is right.

    When I drove an Elise, I think I had an instinctual flashback to my own birth while trying to exit the vehicle wearing my helmet.

    It's a low, small car, so the mirror is closer to the same plane that your eyes are in, and it's also closer to you. That means it tends to block your view. As an owner of a tiny car, I can appreciate why they did that.

    I test drove the Elise and it handles better than any vehicle I've ever driven. I'll take mine in flat black

    The low rider 53-56 Ford F100 restoration/restrod crowd (and other old iron crowds) called that "the primered look" 12-15 years ago. Nice to see even the exotics copying the lead set by the old iron guys. I've always thought the look was fugly - like someone took a rattle can to it. Just me, not really a look I care for. Paint it red, gloss black or yellow, and it would be an awesome looking car!

    Apparently, a single-head LPP forward, and the same rear, can effect true-JTFG.

    Indeed, the sizing works well to its favor.

    Hot Rod Flatz

    I've looked into the "flat look", even considered painting the neon flat black...
