Nice car .. but .. kind of wrong colour. (not my cup of tea)

I guess that is his daily driving car, I saw that on Macleod all the time, and saw it few times at auto trend as well.

It the wheel/mirror/spolier etc are not pink, but black or even white, will be much nicer.:)

Still, All Black Elise/Exige is sexiest!

Yeah, I'm with you C4S. Those red accents are not doing it for me.

Too bad these can't be brought into Canada from the states, or I would buy one for sure. (As long as I didn't mistake it for a Civic)

That is actually good .. keep them rare .. otherwise, many kids can owe them! early one are going for just ~ $30KUS .. but Canadian one (06 and up), still $45K plus .. and very rare.. Weissach sell ~ 20 of them a yr ..

I dig the red on white. It's hard to make those cars look bad though lol. :drool:

Haha I agree. Although the white and red combo isn't bad by any means. I would personally prefer the all black as well.:bigpimp:

Haha I raced the guy a couple weeks ago, needless to say I got owned. Its a sweet car and the owner is super chill.

This is as close as I could find for Lotus:

^That still looks better than a white Accord (I think) with fluorescent/neon green coloured rims I saw on Deerfoot the other day.

Not the same car but looked like this. To each their own I guess...:dunno:

You'd be surprised who can fit, just not always comfortable. Biggest I've seen was 6'6" and 275lbs.

I took a friends miata through it's paces at an Ottawa auto-x event. It was more comfortable for me to see over the windshield than through it. Pics revealed my helmet was a good 8" above the "roof" line. 6'4 280lb

I'm 6'7" 220lbs and I couldn't have my foot on the gas pedal with the shifter in reverse. Just had to slip the clutch for any required reversing.

That would require some severe forethought parking anywhere with hills :rofl:
