Default Re: To our English friends... Lotus Elise

Hey guys (and ladies)

Please understand, my 'aspersions' towards the Crossfire are simply to pull Dan's chain, and he indeed does respond as anticipated.

I do like the Crossfire for what it is. It is the best looking car on the market from the A pillar back, in my opinion. Well, other than the new Ford GT.

It is a great cruiser. It handles very well within its segment.

So when I slam it, please understand than I'm teasing Dan just a bit.

The Elise and the Crossfire are totally different cars. 2 seats, 4 wheels, beginning and end of comparison.

If you like the plushness of the Crossfire, you won't like the Elise. It's not plush, it's spartan beyond anything you've known.

But, settling down into it, you feel like you're in a real race car. You are. Not for everybody. But it is an absolute blast.

Enjoy your Crossfires. Once in awhile I miss some aspects of mine. I loved that rear end styling, and I really enjoyed its handling.

Todd
