yeah i noticed that foam tape stuff making its way out from under the sill.
but i had a few firsts for this mornings ride to work, big puff of steam hitting the window, i'm used to it before having had an elise in the UK, but its still a shocker first time, and the passengers freak out more, very entertaining. and of course along with that the leaks !
time to find a decent car cover.
pulled the grey button off the carpet again last nite, i have to spend some time getting in and out of it, i feel thinner already after a week of ownership, probably due to wearing rubber soles.
i've been using it as a daily driver while my elan m100 is in the shop for some upgrades, (especially much better brakes, the elise proved that to me once and for all) its been a lot of fun again, though with the recent bad weather in socal, potholes are a real hassle, the road changes daily. reached 260 miles this morning, still waiting for that magic 600 , i did hit the 6000 rpm limiter once going onto the freeway downhill, didn't expect that, it takes a long time to get the engine heated up at nite.
spoke to about a 100 people fielding questions about it, let a corvette owner taunt me for about 2 miles, finally at a light, he zoomed off right into the path of a traffic cop, thinking about a "save it for the track muppet" license plate holder.
glad i choose saffron yellow though, apart from all the flies that is, considering venus fly traps for decoration.
