2005 Lotus Elise 2dr Convertible

The 2005 Lotus Elise is a lightweight, two-seat roadster that embodies the company's philosophy of simplicity, agility, and driving purity. Weighing in at just 1,984 pounds, the Elise is a featherweight among its peers, thanks in part to its aluminum chassis and fiberglass body. Its 1.8-liter inline-four engine, sourced from Toyota, produces 190 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque, which may not seem like a lot, but is more than sufficient given the car's svelte weight. The Elise's rear-wheel-drive layout and near-perfect weight distribution make it a handling enthusiast's dream, with razor-sharp steering and a chassis that responds eagerly to driver input. The Elise's interior is Spartan but functional, with a focus on the driving experience rather than luxury amenities. The result is a car that is as much at home on a twisty mountain road as it is on a racetrack, and one that rewards its driver with a level of engagement and feedback that is all too rare in modern cars. With its combination of light weight, rear-wheel drive, and a rev-happy engine, the 2005 Lotus Elise is a true driver's car, and one that is sure to put a smile on the face of anyone lucky enough to get behind the wheel.
