Did you ever get any info on the cupholder. I too would like to know if the new cupholder for the 2006 works for the 2005 model.

I picked her up from South Bay Lotus 2 weeks ago, couldn't have asked for a better experiance. She's an '05 with touring package. I would have posted pic earlier, but I've been busy making some slight modifications.

I saw the list of various options you got on your new Elise and was wondering why you didn't just order a new Exige instead. If you wanted to get the best performing Elise for the track the Exige would be the best bet don't you think? Even with your modifications the Exige would be faster round the race track than your speced out car. Just curious why you would go that route.
G'day.

Most likely he got the Elise well under MSRP (like I did...). That simple. The Exige is still at best $60,000.

Picked up our new 05 Krypton Green from Dimmitt Exotics in Tampa yesterday. I am in love with this new car.

You can see more & read more at http://fleur-design.net/lotus/ . I'll be heading to Deals Gap this weekend so I'll have some more photos up then.

I got my Storm Titanium Elise on Friday the 17th. She has the Sport pack, Touring pack with red leather, the LSD and a starshield. I have already begun the mods with the stereo.

How many of you guys are in Minnesota?

SirSwindon · 02-22-2006, 01:17 PM

My White 2006 Elise was delivered to me in 12/07/05. Desert European MotorCars Ltd. gave me quite a reasonable deal.

I plan to take my Elise to the Fontana Raceway on March 15th and see how it performs on the track.

I will be 82 on July 7th and someone asked me if I am the oldest Lotis Elise Owner/Driver. Well …….. is anyone older?

turbo2nr · 02-22-2006, 04:28 PM

Nice car. You look good in it.

scottyb · 02-22-2006, 05:20 PM

SirSwindon Nice Elise!

You look young in it!

I second that. Anyone know where to pick one up?

doma · 02-26-2006, 01:23 AM

Wow ... I hope I'm still driving sports cars when I'm 81 !! Sweet car dude!

ChrisStarrUSA · 02-26-2006, 07:18 AM

Enjoy many years with it! The white/tan looks awesome - first time I've seen that combination.

pwe · 02-26-2006, 07:44 AM

I took delivery of my Exige about a month ago from Lotus of San Francisco, three months earlier than it was promised to me. Not sure if it's true, but I was told it was the first one in California.

More pics here. Just did the 1k service last Wednesday and autocrossed it (badly) yesterday. I'm insanely happy with it!

ntouched · 02-26-2006, 07:47 PM

Welcome to the forum. Nice car! Congratulations!

Thanks guys. I ordered mine with the touring pack. About 4 colours are available apart from black. I've gone for the red interior too.

Are roof colour options not available in the States??

Tim.

Like Ford was rumored to say, "In any color you want, as long as it's black."
