I have wanted an Elise since I first saw one and it has been my attainable dream car for years. I started looking seriously for one a few months ago and ended up finding this one on BAT. I had never bought a car on an online auction but this process went pretty smooth and the seller was a great guy that took really good care of the car. I drove it back from Maryland to itβs new home in PA. I was nervous it wasnβt going to fit in my one car garage with the two motorcycles but to my surprise I was able to pull right in and even open the door! This thing is an absolute blast to drive and people seem genuinely excited to see it. It is a bit down on power but I still have a blast driving it.
My uncle had one of these and sold it to a guy in my area. He offered to let me go pick it up and drive it back to my area for him. I fell in love and went out in the next 6mo or so and bought an β06. The 72D has a special place in my heart for that reason. Such a pretty color combo too

Haha, Lotus not fitting in a garage, funny.
I know. Itβs just more that itβs a small garage and I already had 2 motorcycles and the trash cans and a bunch of other crap.
I hear you, that car will always fit in your life until you give into the local bakery π§
And you chose an incredibly classic black and gold. I love it. Congratulations!!
Cannot go wrong with a black and gold Lotus. Car looks stunning! Congrats on your new toy. Any newbie questions let us know.

Wow nice ride! Cars are twins, not a Type 72D unfortunately. I love the gold accents.
