I have to say Lotus, I have a 2006 Lotus Elise and I must-say it is the best sports car I have ever owned, don't get me wrong, I love my Boxster but to be honest if I had to choose one sports car, it would be the Elise.

I bet if you had to choose 1 car it would be something else!

I said only one sports car, not my only car. I live in Michigan I do not drive the Boxster or the Elise during the winter months.

I'm 6.2"and weigh 206 pounds my shoe size is 12, I am more then comfortable driving the car.
It did take some getting used to,getting in and out of it. there is a very helpful video on YouTube showing how to get in and out of the car easily.
The Elise is a lot smaller than the Boxster and does have a harsher ride than the Boxster as well but does handle and brake better than the Boxster.
The Elise isn't for everyone, if you look down and can't see your belt-buckle you will be uncomfortable in An Elise.
