yeah rich, Elise + hard top + sport package(suspension and tires) + touring package(stereo for the bling) + metallic paint(cuz the dark grey is sexy) = $50k

greg, i think the hard top alone is like $1300

And don't forget the waiting list and deposit you would have to deal with as well.

I wonder if the Elise is gonna be well built.

I have not heard good things about Lotus quality.

I seem to recall that the Elise uses a Toyota engine. At least that will be well built.

I love the concept of the car, but there is no way I can get in and out of the thing with the top on! (back trouble you know...) Check out this video! http://www.cpdserver.com/elisetalk/video/inandout.wmv

I wouldn't be surprised if someone has already splooged all over the car.

markup is 7.5k over sticker, which fully loaded- sport suspension, hardtop, and metallic paint was about 52k (BEFORE markup), IIRC...

the first one they got, which was to be their demo was going for 15k over sticker...and someone bought it, as i never got my call for my test drive in the demo...if they were willing to let them go for sticker, i'd be driving that instead of the s2k...that and the chrome orange color i wanted would be available in september 05...oh, and there was a 5k nonrefundable deposit...

man, i cant wait to see JN's markup on the Z06...the C5 z06 had a markup of 9k....
