If you don't like blasting thru tight turns while bouncing off the rev limiter and feeling every inch of the pavement, the Elise is NOT the car for you.
Perhaps. I mostly tried it because my fiancé wanted it so bad, otherwise I would not have. But even if I wanted something bare-bones, I at least want to be able to sit comfortably so I can drive *****-to-the-ball without cringing off the seat as I do so. Which I can do in the Xfire heh.
