I took delivery of my Elise last week and drove to Newport Beach, Ca. from Las Vegas yesterday. The service was performed by euro newport lotus. It was very informative ! The tech looked over the entire car, performed a review of the ecu and changed the oil. he also corrected some minor issues I had. Overall a good experience.
The drive to newport on the other hand was very uncomfortable. I have the sport pack/touring and let me tell you about a bumpy ride. I know that some of you said this will be your daily driver i just don't know how. The car is so stiff that you feel everything. i am sure as a track car it will be wonderful but not street. At least not for me.by the way the printed ecu report is sent to lotus. It includes max rpm ,max speeds in each gear and over revs.See you on the track. Jim

a little off topic but, how do you like your touareg? Does it have the air suspension? V8? thanks, might be getting one this afternoon.

I looked at the pepper and frankly the added 20k was not worth the emblem. I have enjoyed the tow-rag . Great tow vehicle. I have the v-8, air suspension and all the other options. good luck, jim
