Default I bought a new car, what do you think?
2006 Lotus Elise
1,200 Miles



I don't know if this is the perfect rally car for next year, so I might have to take the M3 again, however this thing is A LOT of fun to drive!

I just hope it doesn't catch on fire

boost the Lotus or swap it... That Lotus with the dry carbon body from SEMA last year is at a shop around where I live.. they say it still isnt fast enough needs more power and that thing has a K20 or K24 in it.. so...

Also should have got the Prius.. I got 52.8mpg over a 100+ mile road trip the other day in the girl's 08 Prius.. and it has leather/Nav/backup camera...

Great car, not the best for a Rally though. Ask Beef or myself.
I would say with boost, it is definitely a car you could have some serious fun with on the trip, just is a bit tight for you and a passenger for 3,000 miles.... TRUST ME!
