But seriously, for a few bucks more you could have an Elise and his is for sale and coming in a month or 2.
Is that right? I wonder how much.

S2000's are nice cars, but personally I don't like driving them because they have so little torque. If you are not high on the rev's then you are driving a slug.

Just my humble opinion.

Flame shield raised!

Dave, i put down deposit for Lotus Elise in Feb. it should be here end of summer. arctic silver with red/blk interior touring package and upgraded stereo system. I would keep it but my move to my new home is taking precedent right now. Here's the best part- I'm guaranteed MSRP in my contract. let me know if you are interested b/c I have handful on Elise website lining up for my spot. I'm just looking for my deposit back ($1000.00)- if interested we can go to dealer in NYC and do the swap. PM me

Bill, you better check with Brian if it will be OK to swap. Dealers are funny that way. I'll be expecting my commission any day.

hey bill have you talked to your dealer lately? The cars are going to be rolling out WAY slower than expected. I have had my deposit down for considerably longer than you and was told not to expect my car until January 05. If you're not top 5 on the list you wil not have your car this summer...especially if you ordered the sport package which is delayed due to a wheel shortage.

Get yourself an M-roadster with the 300+ HP engine. I think they were made in 02 and or 03.

1983-89 911 Cabriolet. Buy right and treat it nice, it will hold its value very well.

(I miss my 83 Cab)
