It's rare that all three of these cars are at the house at the same time; seems my wife and I have an affinity toward certain colors

She won't let me upgrade to an Exige because I'd have to give up the BRP color of the Elise!

I've had the Turbo for a bit over a year. Bought it with 34K miles on it and have put 10K (including 6 track days). It's been very reliable once we found the reason it kept throwing belts when I first bought it (I knew about the problem at the time of purchase... turned out to be a bent pulley). It throw the belts at my first track day; I almost made it home on battery power (about 20 minutes)...

Almost
