At least on the Evora VVA, the front and rear sub-frames are bolted on. Clearly, some of the Elise "totals" where a small puncture or dent in the front of the car caused it to be totaled due to the cost of replacing the entire chassis, could be much more economically repaired by just replacing the from sub-frame.
