I have a confession to make and I'll probably be flamed for this.
My dealer just told me I should expect my car (#16) in late September instead of late July. And the truth is, the longer the wait is taking, the less enthusiasm I have for the Elise.
The longer the wait, the more I start to convince myself not to get the Elise because it's just too small for U.S. roads. My concerns reasserted itself with the photo of the Elise and Honda Accord.
I already have two narrow focused racing motorcycles and I don't really want to have to drive a car with the same life-or-death and 0-error alertness as I do when I ride my motorcycles.
Also, my internal car vs. motorcycle conflict has flared up as MV Agusta* is coming out with a 1000cc version of it's 750cc motorcycle by September (my Elise's arrival date) and I think I'd rather trade in my current 750cc motorcycle for the 1000cc version. But, I won't be able to swing getting both an Elise purchase and 1000cc MV Agusta within the same time frame - and right now, I think I want that MV more.
Is anyone else tired of waiting and loosing enthusiasm too?
