Default Any TT owners also have the Lotus Exige?

Seriously thinking about getting one ... my old dame ('00 TT Quattro Coupe) is great, but I've had her for 8.5 yrs. Porsches look great, but every other block seems like a Porsch is on it.

Default I went from a TT to the Lotus Elise.....

Question.....which would you want? The Elise, Exige or Exige S?

Both the Exige and Elise have the 190hp engine. With the rear clam and spoiler on the Exige, it makes it very difficult to see behind you....I also like having the easily removable top on the Elise.

Now, if you want more power (albeit more expensive) then you go with the supercharged Exige S.

I was thinking of the Exige S. 218hp, 0-60 in 4.1 seconds.

Of the entire Porsche product line, only five models can outpace the Exige S in the 0-60. And the "cheapest" of those five start at $126,000.

Right. However, Im sure it's nice to know that you have that capability.

I would be interested on your comments (remarks) on the Lotus. What do you like and dislike? Is it your daily driver?
