I've sat in one and the Elise and thought they were great. I didn't go out though. I had to pretend. People at the Motorshow thought I was crazy.

Nicki Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Getting in was fine, but getting out was not so easy. I'm only 5'4" so the wide door sill was a bit of a struggle for me to get over. (Oo-er)Sod trying to get out of one in a skirt though. Thankfully, I very rarely wear skirts/dresses so this should have too much of an impact on my "one day I will own an elise/exige" plans.

The sills are large, but I love the way you step into the cars and almost sit on the ground! I bet it's amazing to be in when moving. I can dream....

It also had a stripe down the outside of the car. On a practical level, what's the 'boot' space like, if any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicki Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Friend of a friend has a seriously meaty rx-7... was pushing out 400bhp at one point.
