Hi Coi,

You're always driving around town with your eyes peeled, as am I. So, I think its only a matter of time before we spot each other.

And in regards to our "spottings" it occured to me, that even thought some of these people might be on LT every once in a while. It seems quite likely that they don't check in on this thread.

But, "spotting" is fun.. so, i'll keep driving n' posting.

No problem, I am half-color blind anyhow, Lazer and Magnetic look pretty close to me. Maybe next time we pass each other, I can get a better look at yours. I am in Reston a lot, so I am sure we will run across each other again, especially as the weather gets nicer.

Someone spotted me on Broadway around 3 pm last Saturday February 9th. My fiance and I didnt see your car, but I definitely heard the unmistakable sound of your horn as you passed (and no I didnt accidentally hit the horn haha). I was in my AR Elise with the hardtop on. . . should have taken it off since it was over 80 degrees! Was it anyone on here?

What color was it? Someone has a midnight blue and works on Broadway near Central Market, but I don't think they are on here.

May have been us. We were there at that time and vaguely recollect seeing an Elise.

I never saw it. . . Alison said that it was behind a suburban and she could see the wheels under it. Oh and she says thank you for the mileage and she told me that I owe you a drink

Anyway she said yes. . . I'll post an update after this weekend since it will be my last weekend with her before she heads back to Germany. Oh and she was driving the lotus so technically I guess someone spotted her

Saw a Chrome Orange Elise on the way to Redmond, while I was on my way back to Kirkland. I did the quadruple honk, and I believe you waved. I was in the Chrome Orange Elise speeding in the opposing direction.
