Elise's are incredibly small in person. Pictures don't do it justice.

I'd rather have this though...

I'd take anything over this POS. It's some no name Samsung flip phone. it looks nice but the software and reception are the worst I've ever had.

And yaw, elise's are way too damn small IRL

You saw a z06? Nice.
I cant wait to see one at our region autocross events. Just thinking about what the c5 z06's where capable of and what THIS monster will do just gives me goosebumps.
:icon25:

hmm, it wasnt an exige that you saw was it? Or was this some weird demo car?

Post by **Captain** » Wed Jun 14, 2006 3:36 am

The C6 looks more muscular than the Z06 IMO.

Awsome. Those exiges are bad ass cars. But at the same time I honestly dont know which I would prefure to have, the elise or the exige. Granted the exige is a better performing vehicle do to the aerodynamic improvements and all.. but it's such a small car I think I would actually prefure the open top just for the sake of having fun spiritedly cruising around the country back roads and not feeling clostrofobic.. that to me would be worth the extra second I would loose at the rare visit track.
But seeing as how I have yet to drive either car at the momment I dunno. They are my dream cars though. Small nimbile bare bones focused sports cars, all thrills little few frills. Good enough power but not too much that you cant "act the foo" when need be. :icon32:

ever see both side by side? The z06 with its flared out fenders looks rather beastly. Esp with its huge ass tires. lol

i tried searching google for "standalone battery charger k700i" but i either got a store selling car chargers or the "zomg we haev teh ringtones" stores. for some reason i never though about ebay. i'll have to do some more searching now that i know how much the phone sucks (at the time i was willing to just let it die and save my $).

Post by **-Nick-** » Wed Jun 14, 2006 2:53 pm

well, with further reading i reckon it will see you right. you can charge a battery as a standalone component.

I saw this thing recently. Bad pic, I was driving. Odd 'car'.
Perhaps a Morgan Aero 1-8?

Looks similar, but the back-end looks different?

P.s. can you name the road, Nick?

Ahh actually it says not to use on batteries < 2000 Mah. The 700 is 750Mah apparently.

"This Sony Ericsson K700 dual desktop charger which allows you to charge both your handset and spare battery at the same time."

That looks fine though (same as Nicks?)

The Exige takes the good qualities of an Elise and condenses it into a car geared towards a track. I seeing one on Top Gear a year or so ago, and while it only had a top speed of around 140mph its handling capability was mindblowing. They had a bloke in an Apache gunship chasing one around the test track trying to get a lock on, but no matter what the polit tried the Exige managed to evade him.

I've seen a few a track days and they corner as if they are glued to the road.
