Message	one thing i haven't seen mentioned is that the elise is in a different class.. ex. weight difference.. common now.. the z32 is not ur run a the mill balerina(spell check) type.. so its kinda hard to compare the two in that sence.. but i knoe lotus makes some of the best handling cars around.. so i'd welcome it..
