Default '65 Lotus Elan

These are neat cars, around 1500lb so pretty much any mill with some HP will put a smile on your face.

Funny how it almost looks like a Miata in side view. I'm sure that's not a coincidence.

I think Mazda purchased 4 or 5 Elans for comparison while developing the Miata.

They are really cool cars and quite fast on a road race course. I'm presently looking at a Lotus Elite that has been sitting in a barn for 40 years. It only weighs 1100#'s.
