Exige S Deposit roll-call. - LotusTalk

Flash G · 09-19-2006, 12:52 PM

Ok, I'll start.

Who else has put a deposit on an Exige S?

codymac · 09-19-2006, 01:40 PM

Deposit is a strong term. I've expressed interest in buying one and my dealer has expressed interest in selling me one - I guess we've got more of a handshake on a deal relationship. I tried to give them money - they'll call when they need it.

Rachel · 09-19-2006, 09:16 PM

A phone call for me. Gonna shake hands when I get back into town.

+1 for deposit, +1 for ordered car (Canyon Red in December)

LW Elise · 09-21-2006, 06:52 AM

Ended up passing. Too little in trade in value for the Elise with only 1200 miles on it. An awful lot of money differential for a fair amount more car.
Are those of you who are buying trading in your Elise's or selling them, and if so, what are you getting for your 2006 Elises?

danwasdahl · 09-21-2006, 07:47 AM

3k refundable deposit at fvmc.
loaded, solar yellow.
will try to sell my 05 saffron touring HT starshield on my own.
(2000 miles, perfect condition, never raced/competed)

Just curious what did they offer to trade in your '06 elise?

InFlight1 · 09-21-2006, 07:24 PM

May trade my SY EXIGE for the S. It is definitely a possibility. If I fall in love again, I must act.

'06 SY EXIGE
North Carolina

P.S. If I am interested in buying the S, is there anyone interested in a '06 SY EXIGE w/ touring pkg., starshield, 2400 plus miles and never auto crossed, or tracked. Car has no track pack or LSD, or traction control

cpforyou · 09-21-2006, 07:32 PM

Any official announcement that the Exige S will be coming to the US and road legal? Links?

I have seen now broadcast announcement. But, you can order one. There will be some in dealerships in October. I think Lotus wants the '06's off the lot before announcing the 07's

Well... except for the trade-ins, I guess!

Indeed... I should have said "new '06's"

Needspeed · 09-26-2006, 11:53 AM

+ 1, Laser Blue, touring package, traction control, December delivery

jim-clayton · 09-26-2006, 12:56 PM

I need to wait for the "S" to achieve the same dismal resale value as my Elise. (weak grammar I know) Then I can buy a used "S" for cheap.

SimonMExS · 09-26-2006, 01:46 PM

I ordered a Chrome Orange with Starshield protection, Touring, Track Pack + Limited slip with TC from Mark Starr of HuntingRidgeMotors in Portchester, New York.

2007 Exige S exp.delivery 1/1/07 to 3/1/07 Already looking into performance/power upgrades. First thing I intend to do is change the color coded trim back to black with Carbon fiber replacements.

pete k · 09-26-2006, 05:59 PM

Now that the word is out, I have an Aspen White, Touring, Track Pack + Limited slip on order with Lotus of Portland.
