im glad you brought that car up. one of these days im going to have to check that car out. im curious to see how i fit in an elise. i actually considered the s2000 at one point but then when i sat in it, i felt cramped. maybe its different in the elise if it has a lower seating position.

I'm about 5-10 170 and it was snug but not tiny or too tight where I felt like I was strapped in with no room to breath. Not sure how it compares to S2k. I guess you have sit and see for yourself. Great car though. If my dog would/could just sit on the front seat - she refuse to do it and only sit/ride in the backseats stretched, I would've gotten an exige.

flipspeed, if you have to get a convertible, shouldn't you be considering the e93 m3 then? e92 is just the normal coupe.
e93 is heavy, the silly top adds whopping 400lb to the car making it 4100lb. it's still a fast and powerful car that can handle on turns, but it does feel heavy

yup, i have the e93 m3 and it's heavy. if it's not they were out of e92 i would have picked e92 for sure. e93 is more expensive but i am sure there are still a lot of 08 left, and they are going for dirt cheap now. i haven't driven turbo and boxster before, although e93 are heavy, but that m3 is still no joke when you want to toss it around
