The Lotus Elise, like the Porsche, is a one-of-a-kind. It is a comfortable two-door, two-passenger sportscar. They are not roomy, but they are not supposed to be. The compactness of the Lotus Elise, like other sportscars, assists in the car’s performance; moving more manageably, freely and fast-paced with less weight to haul. The smaller sizes lend a sheer lightweitedness to the driving experience.
The 1.8-liter, 190-horsepower engine requires constant fill-ups, which discourages fast travelling, as such small tanks are burned quickly at high speeds; for longer and farther travel time between fill-ups, lower speeds are recommended and actually forced. This is evident in the fact that the Lotus Elise’s engine can reach 24-mpgs in the city and 29-mpgs on the express way. High mileage is great for distant travelling, not high-speed racing. The standard six-speed manual transmission with overdrive accommodates many possible speed variations associated with travelling long distances.
The 2007 Lotus Elise costs about $43,000.00, which is understandable, considering the car’s unique design and one-of-a-kind stature. The interest and insurance are likely and expected to be high as well so it will not come easy for low-income buyers.
CarDealershipsDirectory.com contains an extensive directory of car dealerships for you to shop for your favorite car. Uniqueness and individuality always come with a price, but they are certainly worth it for those who have purchased the car.
This make is a carryover from 2006, but then again, there is nothing surprising about that, since last year’s design has satisfied the high-endurance performance for which the car has been known. Why tamper with perfection? This has been named car of the month by ToyotaCarsForSale.com for the month of October.
