My elise is my one and only car. so obviously its a DD. getting in and out, not really an issue for me but, then again, i am a pretty young guy. but after the day or 2, youll find that ingress and egress gets easier and easier. roof hasnt leaked once yet. even tested it while i was washing my car. the ride quality... it was comparable to my 05 evo rs that i had. it doesnt really bother me. driving on the highway at 70 - 80 mph with your rpms at almost 4 grand... role the windows down or turn up the radio. i dont know about you but, wearing soething around my ears or using ear plugs to drown out the noise could get more annoying that just listening to the enging/exhaust.

this car is defniately not for everyone. there are some compromises you will have to make when thinking about making it your daily drive. think it through. do your research. the last thing you want to do is purchase this vehicle on impulse and sell it a month later becuase its not for you. thats money youll never see again.
