This One-Owner 2006 Lotus Elise in Starlight Black with Black

Engine. 6-Speed Manual Trans. Optional Sport Pack and Touring Pack.
Sport Wheels. Traction Control. AM/FM/CD. Premium Audio System.
This Elise is powered by a 1.8L I4 behind the seats, and the car
rides on one of the best sports car chassis available with Eibach
springs, Bilstein dampers, Lotus/AP Racing brakes for stopping
power and lightweight forged wheels. Notable standard features
include air conditioning, a leather-wrapped MOMO sport steering
wheel and sport seats. The standard removable cloth top is included
as well. This example shows in incredibly well-kept condition
throughout.With the 111-series Elise models having been phased out
in 2011 and the current range unavailable in the U.S., well-kept
examples are HIGHLY sought after and don't remain available long.
This is an incredible opportunity to put a well-equipped and
well-presented Elise in your garage at great price point. Don't
miss out.Like the famous Seven and Elan, lightweight roadsters that
helped put Lotus road cars on the map, the Elise is built around
the same concept of joining an exceptionally light, nimble chassis
to a flexible and responsive 4-cylinder engine. With so little mass
to haul around, the Elise doesn't need a ton of horsepower to go
fast, huge brakes to slow down or massive wheels and tires to
handle well. Extensive use of aluminum allows the Elise to achieve
its extreme light weight without sacrificing rigidity. This is most
apparent in the cockpit where the extruded aluminum chassis makes
no secret of its presence, joined by racy billet pedals and a
drilled-out foot stop on the passenger side.From the moment you
swing open the composite door and drop into the leather-trimmed
aluminum cockpit, there's no mistaking the Elise for anything but a
no-nonsense lightweight sports car. Other than 21st-century
necessities like dual airbags, air conditioning and a CD player,
there's nothing extraneous inside the cabin. The dashboard, pedals
and shift knob are all crafted out of aluminum. The steering wheel
is small and purposeful, the seats are lightly upholstered
one-piece composite shells with fore-aft adjustment for the driver
only. Carpeting covers select areas of the interior; everywhere
else the exposed aluminum chassis proudly shows through.Spend a day
of hard driving behind the wheel of an Elise and it all but ruins
you for nearly every other sports car on earth. So immediate are
its reactions, so effortless its exertions that thinking and doing
become one. Every steering, braking and throttle input is met with
an instant and exact response.For more information on this
