    Hey guys,

    Just thought some of you might be interested in a few pictures of Looney's Elise - which I had the pleasure of spending about an hour in today. :)

    We met and drove around Mosman Park (one of the richest areas in Perth), stopping for pictures in a couple of the nicer locations. ;)

    A big thanks to Looney for the little tour and allowing me to experience the little sports car. Its been a great week for me - first my ride in Pete's 328 and now this! :)

    BTW, Looney I picked out 25 (in high-res, unlike these) of the best pics and will put them on a CD-R for you - just let me know when you can pick it up (or another way of getting it to you). ;)

    No problem, just let me know when. ;)

    I definately had a great time - the nice weather (for a change) also helped make it a great afternoon. :)

    Thanks again.

    wicked! got the plate and all, haaaaaaa :cool:

    for some reason some of those shots make it look like a Viper that was left too long in the tumble dry :D

    only thing i can suggest for improvement in some of those pics is to get some steering angle on those wheels for the full-on pose shots, otherwise sweet.

    well there is a reason behind that, since the front tyres look like motorbike tyres Looney didn't want any angle on them. ;)

    yeah the front tyres on the elise are embarasingly thin, and look really bad, so best not to draw attention to that :)

    Having tried to keep up with one on a tight road, I can confirm those front tyres do the trick! :)
