Dan,

Awesome photo's!!! The best yet.

Only thing it's still hard to see the exhaust on the yellow car. How does it look??

Once again thanks for those photo's,

power outlet in between seatbacks

mikester · 12-30-2003, 02:58 PM

many thanks Dan ! So, what were your impressions overall ?

One thing that jumped out at me from your shot of the interior, was that I didn't really care for the way the air vents kind of "bug eye" out of the dash ? But maybe it's better in person...

Dan · 12-30-2003, 02:59 PM

rear speaker, shelf behind driver seat

stuttgart · 12-30-2003, 02:59 PM

I notice the Silver Elise with touring package I assume (with the leather seat, door panel) comes with manual window?!

XconZ · 12-30-2003, 02:59 PM

Great pics!! Thanks you very much!! please keep them coming.

Did any of the cars come with power windows?
