The right car for the right person

So, after a lifetime of wanting a Ferrari, and six months of owning a cherry TR with expensive sorting costs, I decided to sell it and get something else
I've owned Vettes, Vipers, 911s, and dozens of marques over the past 40 years, but I have never owned a Lotus.

Tried one a few days ago, and loved driving it, but figured it was too impractical, so I was going to go back to a 911, or a Z06 Vette, or a Viper as a fast, but livable car.

Didn't

Got the Lotus Elise instead. 190 horsepower in 1975 pound car. PING!!

Just got back from about an hour ride, and I realize that for all the years of big, high horsepower sports cars that I've owned and loved, that THIS is where I belong. This is a motorcycle on four wheels.

Look for a Black Lotus Elise in Los Gatos, and waive when you come by in your Ferrari!! I'll be the only Lotus driver wearing a Ferrari polo shirt!!

See you guys out there.
