2007 Lotus Elise 2dr Convertible (1.8L 4cyl 6M)

I've had mine for about two years. No issues thus far. Hear some build quality complaints on forums- its hit and miss. Its a hand built car that costs $25-40k. The good: Closest thing to a race car for the price, Toyota engine/transmission, so much fun to drive above 5500 rpms. The bad: Getting in and out with top on, people looking at you- wanting to take photos, etc, not many creature comforts. Long story short: If you want a smooth ride, a great stereo, isolation from the road, and a long trip cruiser...buy something else. If you want to enjoy every mile, drive a roller coaster, rip through the gears, wind it up to 9k, turn the stereo off and listen to the engine, buy an Elise.

Would definitely buy again, or a second one! More smiles per mile than any other car. If you want to run rings around any other car, no matter how expensive, the Lotus Elise is the car. This car handles like nothing else, and I have been on track running against Lambo Huracans, Nissan GTR, Porsche 911 and others and this Lotus Elise will run so much faster in the corners. Reliable car with Toyota engine, no issues on maintenance and easy to find parts if ever needed. This is a car appreciating in value as there is nothing like it. If you have never driven a Lotus, you will not understand the advantage that the Elise has on the road and track. VERY low maintenance, VERY reliable

Beware! I bought mine brand new and only put on 2200 miles per year. When the car was one week old the headlight flew out. The radiator hoses have blown 3 times stranding me on the side of the road. The build quality is terrible. Good luck going up-market lotus! People paying six figures for a car will not tolerate these issues.
