tax free..... I WISH!! HA. Park Place was really good on the sale but after it they dont return e-mails and it is very hard to get in contact with them. Kind of dissapointed on the after sales customer service but then I am also a one time buyer and my little elise is chump change for those guys.

Went for the first long drive today. Took off out of yelm and went to HWY 7 then to HWY 12. Drove up FS 25 up to mt. saint helens on FS 99. The ride is a little rough on the FS roads but the twisties were a blast. I wasnt even speeding either...... But I didnt slow down for the turns so that made it fun. Ok, Ok...... so I did go a little faster at times. Kept up to a sport bike for about 5 miles and that was fun. I was taking turns faster then I ever imagined and the car did not even hint that I was getting close to it's limits. I really need a big parking lot or something that I can go nuts in and find out what the limits of this car are. So far I am amazed.

I think the next run is shelton to elma on the back roads with some buddies. I have one guy who just got a Sky red line who swears it will destroy the elise. We will just have to see about that. he he.

It gets lots of looks and thumbs up. The occasional screaming teenage gal is really funny. The kids driving their honda with loud pipes just have to rev high right next to me and try to show me how fast they are. I just continue on my way with a giggle.

Well, until the next adventure........
