Hi guys,

I m not planning on buying a lotus, but i am considering another car with similar "practicality", but since there are no owner forums for it i thought i ll check here if you don't mind

For the owners of an Exige, how hard is it to get a parking ticket (or a toll road one) when parked next to the dispenser (e.g. at an underground parking entrance. Dunno how it is in the US but in Europe we have underground parking garages where you drive up to the barrier, some ticket comes out and thats what you use to pay and leave the parking). I wonder if the actual slot where you can grab the ticket would be positioned higher than the roof of the car.

because a picture says more than a thousand words

Also is it possible to get out of your car in a regular (EU, non SUV size) parking space or do you need to get the door fully open in order to get out?

My car would be used for transporting me, myself and I mostly, but I do park alot in that kind of places (I hate leaving my car on the street in a city) so any feedback would be nice.

Thanks guys!
