What Edmunds Says

Sports car fans rejoice! The European version of the Elise was very good; the U.S. version is even better. Better get in line quick if you want one, though; initial demand is sure to outstrip supply of this hot roadster.

Pros

Ultralightweight chassis, free-revving four-cylinder, uninhibited steering, supercar performance without the supercar price.

Cons

Spartan interior, engine still a bit peaky for U.S. tastes, ride quality more Formula One than grand touring, limited dealer network.
