I have read very little on the subject but havent been able to get a clear picture in order to make a dessicion.

can anyone tell me if the cars A/C is up to the task in the Miami summer?

...BTW this would be my daly driver.
I lived in Houston and A/C really isn't a necessity (at least not to me). The Elise AC is sub par compared to most cars, but just enough to barely do its job. Then again, I prefer slightly warmer temperatures than most people. In the end it comes down to personal preference. If you like it cold inside the car, then you will probably not like the A/C. Since you are in Miami, wouldn't driving around with the top down be ideal?
