Gang,
Just retruned from a business trip to Salt Lake City, Utah. As it happens, my hotel was three blocks from Steve Harris Imports, the local Ferrari & Lotus dealer. During a break I walked over and they have two Elises for sale. The first is a Chrome Orange/Black/LSS/Touring/Hardtop/Starshield with 1,000 miles for $52,900. Trade in on a Ferrari, so they claim to be into it for more than MSRP so therefore not selling into the list. The other is a SY/Black/LSS/Hardtop, new, for $49,900.
Both were in beautiful condition.
Interesting to note, the CO was a month or two older than the SY, and there was one small difference. Both had LSS, but the older CO cars wheels had more of a polished sheen to them, and the SY wheels looked more painted silverish. The salesperson claimed Lotus was using different wheels (with a clearcoat) on the later cars to save costs & time. It was a noticeable difference - the earlier cars wheels were much shinier.
Cheers.
Chris
