A delayed introduction, as I've had my car for about 6 weeks now 
I live in SE Michigan and just bought a 2006 Aspen White Elise SC. A good friend of mine (Ironmatt) let me drive his 08 S240 Exige and that pretty much did it.
I don't have any *good* pics yet of my car, but very excited so far to have it! I bought it from the Newport Beach Lotus Dealer, actually, and had it shipped here! This site was instrumental in me getting this car, as it was posted here,it's this car: http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/f94/2006-lotus-elise-w-lsd-164074/
ON TOP OF THE ABOVE, the car also had these items installed (but not listed): :nanner:
- Multivex Mirrors
- Nitron Singles
- Upgraded Toe Links
- Some kind of brace (*unsure* if it's the RTD2 or DS or other, I have yet to get under the car myself, but the mechanic who inspected it indicated bracing)
Let me tell you, the dealer was EXTREMELY helpful and expedient, as well as polite - Abe was very attentive and made the process very seamless. I would absolutely recommend getting a car from them if you see one that interests you. Their dealer experience was very good.
To give a point of reference, I work in the auto industry: I used to be an engineer for a tier 1 parts supplier, but now work in Purchasing for a Japanese OEM. And yes, I love my company's cars, too!
I do have some plans for the car for next year, but right now am just getting the last vestiges of good weather in before she goes into cold storage for the winter.
So anyway, in a long-winded way just wanted to introduce myself.
Looking forward to enjoying the car.
