I am new to the Elise, 'tho have had many cool cars. I have a '05 ,touring pack, but sure looks like it has the twin coolers, (one behind each inlet grill in the nose). Am I dreaming, or has it had them added at some point? Original invoice came with the car, and it did not have the Sport Pack, and doesn't have the Sport wheels. Tried the search, but no info. Thanks!! Tom

could be an early 05 - i'm pretty sure all the earlier 05's came with the dual oil coolers.

twin oil coolers

Hey, lucky me then. The vin# ends with 32064; would that place it in the early ranks? Thanks again for the info!

Yes, ALL early 2005 models had dual oil coolers; this was phased out in the middle/end of the '05 model year (switched to a single cooler). Early '05s had VINs around 30000 and up, so yours is a mid/late one.
