It was a 72d! I saw it about 20 mins later at 1604 and Potranco. It was in the parking lot by Pei Wei. I was in my fiat spider I am restoring but seeing the 72d made me miss my Elise! Looks like the SA lotus scene is getting more active too and I am seeing them on the NW side pretty regularly! Just repainted the garage in brg and yellow as a tribute to my Elise. Lotus fiat and Ferrari emblems will be painted on next weekend.

Saw a grey Elise with soft top on yesterday in Palo Alto on University Ave around 7:30 pm. Was a young driving.

This morning around 1 am saw a yellow Elise with hard top on parking on Geary near Van Ness. License plate said GOBRNS.

That's hilarious! I saw Sorinne driving to her garage once on the way to work.

I think I was illegally parked in a driveway because I was dropping off a wasted friend. I couldn't have been there for more than 60 seconds. Crazy how you drove right by and I didn't notice!

Maybe it wasn't the "friend" that was wasted

Hi Miura,
Not many S2 Elises here. You would have more luck looking on SELOC for this kind of info. The only Elises in US are Toyota engined cars.

Randy Chase · 07-20-2008, 04:35 PM

Irvine. We were at some taco place in the Noble. Silver/Gray Elise, top off, owner follically challenged. License plate was EVIL something....

noobified · 07-20-2008, 06:21 PM

Spotted cstetter's HOT ELIZ!! Also saw a Chrome Orange Elise at the Fremont Fry's today. Anyone here?

lotusforsale · 07-20-2008, 06:28 PM

Saw yellow elise, top off on Snowden River Parkway in Columbia, MD on Sunday, 7/20 late afternoon.

I was pulling out of the Best Buy/Home Depot shopping center, headed opposite way on Snowden River. Was in AR Elise w/hard top on. Gave a wave but don't think you saw me.

def · 07-20-2008, 07:11 PM

I thought since cstetter bought a daily driver, his elise would be clean

esoteric · 07-20-2008, 08:42 PM

SoCal: California Speedway in Fontana - spotted Manly's Elise tearing it up on the track and a black ExigeS. Whose Exige?
Also spotted 25psi's Evo buddies.

Zen Dude · 07-20-2008, 08:45 PM

Los Angeles, Sunday, 20th of July, 12:30 in the afternoon on Sunland Boulevard near the 5 Freeway. Saw a really nice Black Elise with Yellow stripes. It looked great!

I was heading toward Sunland, he was heading toward the Freeway. We saw each other and gave each other a high sign. I was going to turn around but I was on my way to pick up my daughter.

Who were you?

The Elise is still the daily driver - the A8 is the kid and customer hauler (and it's also dirty

)

Woot! Finally got spotted after almost 3 years of ownership!
