    Ditch the wheels for some beefy purple 5-spokes, and turbo it.

    Bait everyone who catcalls you.

    I didn't realize used Elise's were so affordable!

    Let's see, 28K gets you a Mustang, Challenger, or Camaro all in V6 form, or a V6 Genesis, or a 3 year old flipping LOTUS ELISE!!!!

    YIKES! You know what, I'd still rock that car! I would have to change the wheels though...those blingers probably weigh half of what the car does!

    hope the hard top comes with it, make sure the battery isnt dead, get the track pack wheels with the Advan A048s, slap your mother, paint it SATIN black, go to town...

    Are you guys that insecure? Who cares if its pink... just track the crap outta it.

    Maybe lime green the wheels for a nice contrast? :p

    I guess I am that insecure but for $20K damn right I'd buy and paint that puppy.

    I have always wanted an Elise, theywill edge down into my territory in another year or two.

    Thanks for the lead. I too will now have to start keeping the Elise on the radar.
    I believe the color is named Aubergine Purple

    I think it is somehwhat akin to this:

    Fine for me. Wild car with wild paint.

    I wonder what color it was when it was new?

    I think I'd want to perform a thorough sanitization. My web search for pink lotus elise turned up world fitness champion turned playboy cover model turned porn star whose favorite car is a pink lotus elise. Krizstina Sereny. Probably not a good idea to look up at work. Or ever. You'll likely go blind.
