lol I surprised this old dude (he was about 50-60-ish) by walking to the gas station across the plaza at my work and said "nice Elise.... Ardent Red?" The man smiled and overall was a pretty cool guy. He said he daily drove it too! It was nice, it had the matching color hardtop.

They're just very eye-catching....

That's a great video! Maybe I'll do the same for my stock S2000....it's an uncommon car, not clearly branded, and it's therefore very frequent that I have to clean fingerprints off the window.

thats awsome. I thought you were going to catch someone messes with your car

I see a lot of exotics around me...there is a lotus dealership, bentley dealership, and a Lamborghini dealership. The new Audi R8 in there is SICK. People pull up and walk around outside the dealer at night all the time

That was pretty cool. I wouldn't have thought that many people would stop, look, take pics, and even pose with the car. I see a red lotus drive by my work every couple days and it is def an eye catcher.
