2005 Lotus Elise Test Drive

2005-Lotus-Elise1

The Elise wowed Lotus fans elsewhere and was finally available in the U.S.  It packed supercar performance and handling with exotic-car looks in a small package.  Amazingly, it was also easy to drive around town, thanks to a six-speed close ratio gearbox and Toyota Matrix engine.  The back-to-basics car had a bare metal cockpit and a removable roof section.  It came alive on winding two-lane roads, with its go-kart-like handling.  Despite its diminutive size and light weight, the car was quite crashworthy and had some storage space behind the engine.
