Default Lotus Elise...your thoughts?

I was fantasizing buying a 135i next year, but maybe i'll hold off on that. Lotus Elise looks pretty cool and it handles like it's on rails Might pick up a used one if the funds are correct.

I have no money now, I'm talking about next year. When the wifey starts working, she'll buy me a used one. A used one can be had for 20 something.

Would this be your daily driver? I found it to be unfortunately uncomfortable. Don't think I could do it as a DD

Never was a fan of the way they looked. Great performance though.

ZERO practicality. ZERO. it is a 100% weekend fun car. a pain in the fucking ass to get in. a pain in the fucking ass to get out. the interior is bare as fuck. the only awesome thing about the car is driving it hard.

but all that novelty wears off after a lil bit.
