Lotus, Enterprise Renting Elise - - Source: The Car Connection
No more Cobalts for you - it's time to think Lotus when renting your next car. The Atlanta-based sports car company says it's now offering its two-seat Elise roadster in select Enterprise Rent-A-Car
outlets. Some 50 Elises will make their way into the rental fleets in cities like San Francisco, L.A., Vegas, and San Diego. Lotus hopes to get the cars out in states other than California, Florida, and Nevada in the near future. The Elise soldiers on for the 2007 model year as a 190-hp, two-seat roadster weighing less than 2000 pounds, giving it better dynamics than just about anything else at the Enterprise counter.

I just hope they don't do the same shit Hertz does with the Shelby GT-H where you can only rent it if you fly into a airport.

Understatement of the year! 
What do they mean by just about?!?
Here's the full list of what they have to rent. See if you can pick the Elise-beater from the list:

Go ahead and go to enterprise...and while you are there explain to them how 
magically turned into California...and that they must have the Lotus.
